    What's special

    Charming 2 bedroom, 1 bath cottage with loads of updates! Main floor offers open concept with cozy living room, open kitchen with newer cabinetry, stainless steel appliances and granite counters, separate dining space, comfortable master bedroom, nicely sized guest bedroom, and nicely appointed full bath with tile surround shower. Garage space accessed from rear of home (not vehicle-accessible from street) offers a great space for storage or a workshop, and opens to unfinished lower level of home for more storage options. Wood floors span most of main floor, most plumbing and electrical updated approximately 5 years ago, lots of LED lighting added, and Nest thermostat. Outdoors includes covered porch, covered site porch, rear concrete patio, and backyard with treed backdrop. Lot is deceptively large, and has a good amount of treed buffer on hillside to the rear.

    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
