This very well maintained and updated home has 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a 2-car attached garage on a large corner lot that has a fully fenced in back yard with an above ground pool. The deck off the dining room's sliding glass door overlooks the fenced in back yard, it's patio out the garage’s back door and the pool. The panoramic views of the neighborhood & fields behind the property from the deck are great while sitting back to stare at the world for a moment. This home is also only a few blocks in a couple different directions to parks, trails and ball fields. This turnkey property is all ready to enjoy this summer!
