Description

Look at this beautifully-upgraded brick home! Tons of updates inside and out, starting with the gorgeous side entry way with oversized slate and stone steps, vinyl railings and a pretty wood door with side panels and a storm door too. Front bay window is new and also has lovely slate ledge. Heater, central air water heater and electric service and vinyl tilt-in windows are newer. Heater is serviced annually and central air was just serviced. Large, oversized driveway leads to a patio area with bench...Look at this beautifully-upgraded brick home! Tons of updates inside and out, starting with the gorgeous side entry way with oversized slate and stone steps, vinyl railings and a pretty wood door with side panels and a storm door too. Front bay window is new and also has lovely slate ledge. Heater, central air water heater and electric service and vinyl tilt-in windows are newer. Heater is serviced annually and central air was just serviced. Large, oversized driveway leads to a patio area with bench and a newer, beautiful vinyl fence to the awesome back yard where there is a lovely, 12x18 above-ground pool (52" deep). There is a large, lower patio that leads to the upper trex and polyethylene deck which surrounds the pool. Back yard is fully fenced. From the deck, walk thru the sliders into the dining room with hardwood floors and lighted ceiling fan. Dining room is open to the newer kitchen with island, plenty of cabinets and recessed lighting. The beautiful entry foyer is ceramic tile and leads into the spacious, bright living room, again with more recessed lighting and a lighted ceiling fan. There is also a super convenient, updated powder room on the first floor. The 2nd floor has 3 bedrooms, a full hall bath and a double closet with extra side shelving (could possibly be a 2nd floor laundry area). Master bedroom is large and has 2 closets. All the bedrooms have lighted ceiling fans. The basement is almost fully finished and even has recessed lighting, an awesome full bath with a ceramic tile shower and lots of outlets. Would make another great living area (and it does have egress to the rear of the house). Just needs a few more finishing touches to make it complete. Ceramic tile is on the entire basement floor and the walls are drywalled. A few more sheets of drywall and door installation is all it needs, and seller will leave them at no additional cost to buyer. This house has so much to offer! Move in an kick back! All the systems are newer and the home is cute and clean. Come see! Will never last!
