Description

This is a perfect 'starter' home or 'empty nest' home. Lovingly maintained and meticulously cared for is this solid brick gem that only needs a new owner to pick up where the original owner left off. In the recent past a new roof was added (2014). The entire house was completely repainted (2014). All the concrete (2014) was replaced. And, so much more. There's new carpet in the finished basement. There's a 3-zone HVAC system (2009) giving the basement, main level and enclosed porch all separate zones....This is a perfect 'starter' home or 'empty nest' home.

There's a 3-zone HVAC system (2009) giving the basement, main level and enclosed porch all separate zones. This house is squeaky clean and at this price it won't last long. Don't overlook the updated kitchen with 42" cabinets and formica counters or the enclosed rear porch with and 2nd set of washers and dryers (basement pair also included). The electrical system has been completely updated and brought to current code. A state of the art security system will help you sleep well at night. Come make this house your home!
