Welcome to this charming home, nestled in the heart of the Summit-University neighborhood. The large front porch invites you to greet guests or simply relax and enjoy the breeze. As you step inside, you'll be greeted by a spacious, light-filled living room with beautiful hardwood floors that extend throughout the main floor. The dining area, complete with a unique light fixture, flows seamlessly into a cozy bonus den—perfect for relaxing or working from home. The expansive kitchen spans the back of the house and offers generous cabinet and countertop space, with room to add even more if desired. Upstairs, two generously sized bedrooms feature brand-new carpet, and the large, fully updated bath offers tile floors and fresh paint. Recent updates include a new furnace installed in 2023, fresh paint, and new carpeting. Outside, you'll find a substantial screened porch off the garage, adding to the outdoor living space. All of this is situated on a quiet, tree-lined block in a must-see location. Tons of potential for a buyer who is willing to do a little sweat equity! Don't miss the opportunity to call this gem your own!
