Step up into the living room, with well-maintained hardwood floors and front-facing bay windows. A brick hearth and built-in bookshelves complete this bright space. Behind the living room, find a cozy U-shaped kitchen with a counter pass into the dining room. The back of the home is finished with an enclosed porch leading onto a deck, and out into the large yard. Down the hall, find two corner bedrooms, with one featuring an attached walkthrough room that has great potential to be a third bedroom. A full bath with built-in storage and double sinks closes out the top floor. Downstairs, find a full bath and the primary bedroom. Two utility areas, completed with a newer heating system and oil tank installed in 2021, offer ample storage or work space, and laundry hookups are available. Rounding out the lower level is an extra-large open space that's ready to be finished into the den or office of your dreams! The property is complete with a new roof in 2019 and a breezeway from the lower level that brings you to the attached 2-car garage and large gravel driveway. Several storage buildings make great use of the 3 acre lot, leaving plenty of room to enjoy the quiet, private land. Open House: 3/18 4-7pm, 3/19 10am-1pm
