Antique character meets practical updates in this 3BR, 1BA home in the heart of Dexter. Beautiful hardwood floors flow through the main level, which also features a large office, living room, dining room and full bathroom. A modern kitchen greets you with custom cabinetry and enough room to eat-in - or add an island. Upstairs, the hardwood floors continue into the 3 bedrooms, highlighting the farmhouse charm in this home. The primary bedroom features a huge walk-in closet - plenty of room for all of your clothes in addition to a sitting area to put on your shoes. This home has a nice surprise - a new, modern basement that was poured 15 years ago and put under the home - giving the home a firm foundation - and the option for future finish with an egress window and plumbing for a future bathroom. There's even a tub surround unit that stays with the home to get your remodel started. Outside, you get to enjoy a 1-car garage - with a large attached storage shed - perfect for a workshop or any of your storage needs. This home also comes with an extra parcel - perfect for parking an RV, or creating a firepit or outdoor sitting area. Pride of ownership abounds with this charming property!
