The master bedroom is spacious, with a full bath and walk-in closet. There is another large bedroom and smaller one, both with double closets. All 3 bedrooms have wall lights (position your bed between them for reading at night). The main bath has been updated with new counter-top and lighting. The majority of the main level has beautiful hardwood flooring. You will love the large walk-out basement which could easily be finished for additional living space. It includes a brick fireplace, lots of storage cabinets, workspace for woodworking or crafting, crawl space under sunroom for additional storage. The large French doors open to a patio area (great spot for a firepit?) and access to the backyard. There is a 2 car garage with storage in back (garage is where you access the basement). The large deck overlooks the beautiful lot and amazing views. This home has been loved for many years and is ready for a new homeowner.
