The ample backyard comes with a convenient storage shed, plus there's exciting potential to add an entertaining patio, driveway, vehicle garage and more. With close proximity to essential community infrastructure, including schools, parks, grocery, and more, this property perfectly balances neighborhood accessibility with quiet, restful refuge.Such a long-held treasure is now awaiting its next adventure.
