Relax on the spacious front porch before entering into the large, light-filled living room with a stone fireplace, deep window sills and beautifully refinished hardwood floors throughout. Enjoy family gatherings in the dining room and updated, fully equipped kitchen with a brand new dishwasher, a garbage disposal and microwave. You can even extend the party and fire up the grill on the rear deck just on the other side of the kitchen door! Upstairs features three spacious bedrooms and a fourth bedroom which would be perfect for an office or nursery. There is a 3-piece hall bath, linen closet and cedar closet to complete the upper level. Create your man-cave in the semi-finished basement with glass block windows, a full bath, separate laundry room and lots of storage. An attached 1-car garage and parking for one more car is below the deck and there is plenty of street parking. There's a cute rear yard off of the driveway and in the summer the perennial garden surrounding the house will be in bloom! Convenient to public transportation, shopping, places of worship and schools. Hurry and see this beauty...you could be in before the holidays!
