Many updates include new storm door, replacement windows, new furnace, new floor and new stainless steel appliances in the kitchen. The whole house was just freshly painted, brand new carpet on the stairs, new upgraded light fixtures throughout, updated bathroom with tile, new vanity, new mirror, and lighting. The flexible floorpan includes built in shelving in a nice size living room that is open to the dining area. Lvp flooring in all three nicely sized bedrooms and main floor. The basement is partially finished. It is easy to relax and entertain on the patio that overlooks the oversized fenced in back yard that backs up to a tree line. The neighborhood is quaint and features a recently reopened convenient store that's been there for decades.
