From the welcoming front porch to the 10 foot ceilings and original wood flooring, this house is full of charm and warmth. The home was renovated in 1989 and has 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths - both with claw foot tubs. All three bedrooms are spacious and have very ample closet space. The Master Bedroom has a nice study/reading area with a set of French doors that open to a large wrap around deck. The Kitchen has a gas cooktop range/oven, double stainless steel sink, and LOTS of cabinet storage. A very special feature is the approx 500 sq ft (not counted in the total living space) apartment above the 2 car carport. The apartment is oh so nice and has it's on laundry room. All the apartment appliances remain at no value and with no warranty. The lot size is 60 x 120 - so there is actually a side yard (fenced) for play or pets.... or perhaps to even to add a pool. The seller will provide a 1 year Old Republic home warranty.
