If you've been looking for an affordable home with great bones and endless potential, this is it. Inside, you'll find an updated kitchen with granite countertops, living room, two main-level bedrooms, a full basement with additional living space, a laundry area. Outside to enjoy the large multi-level deck overlooking the backyard, perfect for relaxing or entertaining family and friends and newer heated outbuilding provides the perfect space for hobbies, a workshop, or additional storage.

Major improvements completed over the years include newer windows (approximately 2015), roof replacements on both the house and garage, newer siding, and updated soffits, fascia, and gutters.
