Just a short stroll to restaurants, breweries, coffee shops, Trader Joe’s, and even downtown. Inside, a spacious entry opens to the living room and updated kitchen, with hardwood floors throughout and a primary bedroom featuring vaulted ceilings and an en-suite bath. Outside, the fully fenced yard enjoys full sun and features garden beds, a mature apple tree, chicken coop, fire pit area, and two additional storage spaces for tools, bikes, and more. The current owners purchased the home intending to stay long-term and invested accordingly, completing major improvements over the past two years including a new roof, foundation and crawlspace work, new insulation (which cut the heating bill nearly in half), exterior paint, and a new hot water heater—the kind of behind-the-scenes work that makes a home easy to enjoy for years to come.
