The home features spacious bedrooms and a comfortable, functional layout ideal for everyday living. Enjoy the outdoors from the large screened-in porch overlooking a spacious backyard, surrounded by woods on three sides for added privacy and tranquility. This is a one-owner home, well cared for over the years and ready for its next chapter. While a new owner may wish to add modern updates, the home provides a solid foundation with great potential. Kitchen and laundry appliances remain for added convenience. Cozy up by the wood- or gas-burning fireplace in the living room, or enjoy the warmth of the wood stove in the lower-level den. The roof was recently replaced. So conveniently located off I-40 Midway Rd Exit 402. The owners are motivated, so take a look soon!
