The finished basement expands the home with a generously sized bedroom featuring ample closet space, a comfortable family room, a laundry area, and a bath with a 4-foot shower. Enjoy the outdoors in the beautifully maintained yard with mature trees. The extra-deep detached 2-car garage is a standout, offering heat, water, and a 220 hookup-plus additional parking alongside. This home has been lovingly maintained and is full of charm. Don't miss out on this special opportunity!
