That same stunning original woodwork is reflected in the amazing built-in buffet, an elegant focal point in your formal dining room. The main floor bedroom, updated bathroom, and airy laundry room provide the perfect home office opportunity, and the two large second floor bedrooms with their walk-in closets offer both the perfect spaces for quiet relaxation, and excellent storage.

You’ll love starting your day in the bright, well laid out kitchen with its newer, high efficiency appliances, great cabinet space, and all the counter room you’ll ever need! The coffee bar beside the window overlooking the back yard with it’s garage and parking pad is incredibly convenient, but you will be hard pressed to decide if you would prefer to use it as a cozy breakfast nook! With everything move-in ready, and even pre-inspected, there is nothing to do except enjoy the warm evenings on the porch chatting to neighbors, and back deck barbeques! Don’t wait to call, your search is over!
