Welcoming and full of character, this Craftsman Bungalow offers classic charm and modern convenience! Gather in the living room by the fireplace, enjoy meals in the sunny kitchen with stainless appliances, or step out to the enclosed porch that overlooks a patio and fenced yard. A fieldstone front porch framed by blooming perennial landscaping, beautiful hardwood throughout, post-and-beam shed with power, and extras like hardwired detectors and a generator hookup (generator included) complete the package. Upstairs you’ll find comfortable bedrooms, each with generous walk-in closets and a remodeled full bath, while the partially finished lower level adds a second bath, laundry, and bonus space that walks directly out to the backyard. Thoughtful updates mean you can move right in and simply enjoy! Conveniently located near a hospital and a few minutes from major routes, this home offers a kind of charm that never goes out of style; it's perfect blend of comfort, spaciousness, and warmth.
