Tucked away in a surprisingly private, in-town setting, this charming bungalow offers convenience, character, and practical updates. From the moment you arrive, the covered front porch overlooking a beautiful mature maple tree creates a warm, inviting first impression. Inside, original hardwood floors add timeless charm, while the spacious primary suite addition features a soaking tub, tiled walk-in shower, and a peaceful retreat-like feel. Step outside and discover a true backyard oasis, complete with established gardens and a detached shed—creating a rare sense of escape just minutes from everyday conveniences. The large parking area with turnaround space adds ease and functionality, while the tucked-away setting offers an unexpected level of privacy. Practical improvements including a newer HVAC system (2020), newer septic system (2020), and freshly painted exterior (2026) make this home a great value and move-in ready opportunity. Full of warmth, charm, and meaningful upgrades, this is a special find.
