    What's special

    3 bedroom, 3 bathroom 1 1/2 story home is a short drive to a large variety of stores and restaurants. The welcoming covered front porch is a comfortable place for visiting friends and neighbors or enjoying the plentiful songbirds in the neighborhood. Nice entry space has a pretty staircase to the bedrooms on the second floor, and the hall provides access to both the living room and kitchen (with a fun circular room access to the dining room). The family room, on the main floor, has built-in shelving and cabinets and is currently used as a 4th bedroom. All other spaces on this level including a guest bathroom (with an antique clawfoot bathtub) have hardwood flooring. Formal dining area has French doors out to a large sunroom with wraparound windows and access to a huge deck and the detached 1 car garage (with plenty of room to make it a 2 car garage). A spacious fenced back yard has large shade trees. Kitchen has a double sink, gourmet gas range, lots of built in storage and a unique hardwood floor pattern. The three upstairs bedrooms have unique layouts with nooks and lots of character. One upstairs bath has a walk-in shower. The other is a half bath. Front entryway drive is double wide. The washer and dryer are in the lower level.
