What's special

Very deep fenced yardKitchen with breakfast barOpen front porchBright well-proportioned floor planFormal dining roomInviting deckTwo generously sized bedrooms

Move-in ready row home on a desirable West Oak Lane block. Step onto the open front porch and into a bright, well-proportioned floor plan featuring a large living room, formal dining room, and a kitchen with breakfast bar. Two generously sized bedrooms and a full bath complete the upper level, while the finished basement adds valuable flex space for a family room, home office, or gym. Out back, an inviting deck overlooks a very deep fenced yard — perfect for barbecues, gardening, or giving the dog room to run. The front-entry garage offers interior access to the basement for everyday convenience, and the property sits within close distance of the train station for an easy commute. A comfortable, well-maintained home in a great location.
