Welcome home to this beautifully updated bungalow offering the perfect blend of timeless character, modern upgrades, and an unbeatable location. Featuring 2 bedrooms, 1 full bathroom, and an additional flex room/3rd bedroom upstairs, this move-in-ready home sits on a spacious 0.37-acre fully fenced lot on a quiet, low-traffic street just a short walk to Downtown Brighton's Main Street.
Enjoy the convenience of being within walking distance of Brighton's vibrant restaurants, bars, coffee shops, boutique shopping, seasonal farmers markets, community events, and everything downtown has to offer, while still coming home to a peaceful neighborhood setting.
Inside, you'll find gorgeous hardwood floors, fresh interior and exterior paint, abundant natural light from new windows, and a beautifully refreshed interior (carpet in bedrooms). The kitchen comes complete with brand-new stainless steel appliances and new washer and dryer, while the bathroom has been updated with a new bathtub for a clean, modern feel.
Major improvements provide peace of mind for years to come, including a new furnace, new central air conditioning, and a new roof. The basement offers plenty of storage and additional usable space, while the upper level provides even more storage options.
Outside, the oversized (extra deep) two-car garage offers ample room for vehicles, tools, toys, or a workshop (with electricity). The expansive fenced backyard is perfect for entertaining, pets, gardening, or simply enjoying your own private outdoor space.
