This 1.5-story1940s vintage home is full of charm and blends authentic character with modern updates and a modified open concept floor plan. The entire home is full of natural light and the kitchen looks out to a fenced in back yard with outdoor living features that includes covered & uncovered and decks that are perfect for lounging and entertaining. Featuring 2500 square feet, this home is deceiving from the front view. It offers much more space than it looks, featuring four bedrooms & three baths, an abundance of closet and storage spaces, and is perfect for a growing family. The home is located in a sweet neighborhood with no thru traffic, is close to the water reservoir for fishing, the bike path, and Cedarhurst. The layout of the home is very unique and has been lovingly decorated with an artist's touch. It offers two separate upstairs & a bed/bath on the main floor as well. The home features a cozy gas fireplace and transferable solar-powered electricity, locking in your electric rate for the next 23 years. An oversized attached two car garage lends convenience. Also has an unfinished full basement offering more storage or opportunity to finish.
