From the front covered porch to the back patio area and fenced yard with 2 car garage allowing easy access into the home! The 3 bedrooms are on the main floor with a full bath, large living room, and kitchen, and are as cute as a button. The breakfast nook/space is ready for just the right dining piece! There is more countertop than what appears. The Range is newer and has a stainless dishwasher to match. Roof, flooring and painting throughout all have been recently done. The large, finished family room in the lower level is a bonus. The unfinished area in the basement allows for much storage and they have never had any leaks or water trickle in to their knowledge. This home is ready for YOU!
