With 2 off-street parking spaces, this 3+ bedroom home has a huge backyard perfect for entertaining, sports, etc. Upon entry you step into the living room, which will include the wall of customized bookshelves. Past the living room is a convenient half bath. Also on the main floor is the dining area, a large pantry, and the kitchen. The sellers just installed a brand new Bosch dishwasher. From the kitchen step out onto a brand new deck constructed with composite materials that will last for years to come. The deck opens to an expansive rear yard. The second level is where you will find two bedrooms, a hallway full bath, hallway closet, and the master bedroom with a walk-in closet and master bathroom. The basement is partially finished with a room that can be used as a 4th bedroom or an office. The utilities and laundry area are located in their own framed out rooms making it easy to close them off to the rest of the basement that can be used as an additional living area, storage, or entertaining. The sellers have added new paint throughout, installed a new hot water heater in 2016, and upgraded the electrical service to 200 amp. All you'll need to do is unpack your bags and make this house your home. All offers must be submitted by 5 PM on Thursday, May 9.
