Seller enhanced the curb appeal by removing large bushes and adding a spacious welcoming deck, refinished in 2025, perfect for relaxing or entertaining outdoors. Inside, you’ll find a sun filled formal living room featuring original hardwood floors that continue through two main floor bedrooms. The full bath was renovated in 2022 situated between the 2 bedrooms. Spacious kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, generous countertop space, and a breakfast bar that opens to the informal dining and family room area, creating a functional open concept layout. Just off the kitchen, a staircase leads to the walk up attic space offering loads of potential for additional storage, hobby space, or future finishing possibilities. Down the hall is a second full bath and a large primary bedroom with ample closet space and new closet doors installed in 2025. Unfinished basement provides additional storage and workspace with workbench, refrigerator, washer, and dryer all remaining. Expansive backyard offers endless possibilities for entertaining, outdoor activities, and even winter sledding, plus a storage shed for added convenience. Home is being sold as is and has been priced accordingly, presenting a great opportunity for buyers looking to add their own personal touches while enjoying an excellent location and functional layout.
