This home is an amazing opportunity whether you're looking to downsize, just starting out, or maybe just starting fresh. With almost a quarter acre of usable land in a quiet Chamberlain neighborhood, this home is truly a must-see. From the moment you enter the renovated breezeway you'll understand the care for details these owners have put into this home these past few years.

With almost a quarter acre of usable land in a quiet Chamberlain neighborhood, this home is truly a must-see. From the moment you enter the renovated breezeway you'll understand the care for details these owners have put into this home these past few years. Either step out onto the deck and patio overlooking your private, fenced-in escape, or turn into the remodeled kitchen, complete with gorgeous backsplash and a dishwasher. Stackable laundry hookups make single-level living a breeze, and you'll be thankful for the effort spent in the remodeled first floor bathroom. Hardwood floors and classic built-ins mark the style of the large dining area which opens into your gorgeously decorated living room. Down the hallway you'll find your large first floor bedroom, complete with two closets. Up the stairs is where opportunity awaits, with a large unfinished area to let your imagination run wild. Maybe you'll return this antique to its original cape style by re-creating the two bedrooms. Maybe you'll tear down the walls and have a permanent, dry storage area or art studio. Maybe you'll search Pinterest for "unfinished attic hammock" and thank us later. All this and covered parking await, so don't miss your first chance to see your next home when the delayed showings begin at this Saturday's open house from 11.30am to 1.00pm. See you soon!
