With almost an acre lot (.86) there is plenty of yard to have a vegetable and/ or a flower garden. Off the living area, there is a cute sunroom! There are back to back non-working fireplaces in the living room and sunroom. Both bedrooms are large with plenty of closet space! The kitchen features lots of cabinets/counter space. The fridge and washer/dryer remain. Some updates include (dates are approx.): most windows have been replaced, roof was replaced with a tin roof about 5 years ago, leaf guards added this year, gas stove in 2019, fridge about 5 years ago, washer/dryer about 2 years ago, seller has had a service contract for several years for the HVAC and it is serviced regularly. There is a basement that you access from the outside of the house that would be great for storage or as a storm shelter. Add your own personal touches (paint/new carpet) and you will be proud to call this home!
