The remodeled kitchen & bathroom 2018 have bright south facing windows & Samsung appliances. Storage built-ins are tucked throughout the house. Third bedroom upstairs has pine wood flooring ready to be made beautiful & there’s more space to expand the room or remake an impressive closet! The partially finished basement has 2 egress windows, stone fireplace, tiled floor, knotty pine walls, a storage room, a laundry room, bathroom, & tuck under garage! Between the bathroom & laundry may be a good spot to install a south facing patio door for a full walkout basement.
