Enter this stout 2.5-story home and imagine yourself in it. From the front porch, this is a great place to sit, read, have coffee, or use as a play area. Then, as you enter, you will be greeted with a large open living room, which seamlessly blends into the formal dining room, admiring the thick dark casings and trim. There is a 3/4 bath to the left of the entrance for convenience. The kitchen offers lots of custom wood cabinets, a small breakfast bar or meal-prep foldable peninsula, plus the laundry. From there you can venture outside to the backyard, 2-car garage, and large bonus storage shed. The second level has 3 bedrooms, all on one level, and a 3/4 bath with a tub. From the bathroom is the walk-up attic that has a den area plus a fourth bedroom. The unfinished basement is spacious, with a second shower stall and the electric forced-air heat pump. Recent updates include newer shingles, windows, and gutters completed by a prior owner. With all the charm, features, size, and amenities, buyers will not want to pass this one up.
