With five large bedrooms and a spacious home office, additional features of this move-in condition home includes three levels of living for large or extended families. Additionally, the updated kitchen has beautiful granite countertops and tile back-splash throughout. While sizable enough to allow for an eat-in kitchen table, there is no need for this as the home features a formal dining room. Additionally, the one and one-half bathrooms are modern and inviting. With beautiful hardwood and tile flooring throughout, two zones of heat and central air, crown moldings, high ceilings and blown-in insulation, the home is both charming and energy efficient. The exterior of the home was also completely remodeled in 2009 with a new roof, vinyl siding and windows, stonework on the front of the porch and a stamped concrete driveway. Detached two-car garage as well.
