Kitchen offers stylish cherry cabinets, newer countertops and updated appliances including microwave hood. All rooms are quite large and the entire home has replacement windows. Approx 2-year old, economical Weil-McLain gas boiler offers lower heating cost and peace of mind. Water heater is also approx 2 years old. You'll love the covered rear porch and large deck great for entertaining. There is also off-street parking and a large 2 year old shed great for storage. Upstairs paneling added when all 2nd floor walls received additional insulation. Just needs a little paint to update. This home has solid "guts" and just needs a little love to make it a perfect home.
