Over an acre of beautifully landscaped yard with front picket fence offers great curb appeal. Yard includes a large hip roof storage building. The interior is warm and welcoming. Upon entering the foyer there is the open stairway to the upper level with 3 bedrooms and a full bath. The main level offers a living room, dining room and a kitchen with a long island, and a half bath. Off the kitchen there is a large mudroom that has hook up for washer and dryer, and this leads to a south facing deck for your morning coffee or evening relaxation. Your family will love the lower level with a large family room and another room which could be your den, office, craft room, children's playroom....use your imagination. A must see.
