You must see this charming 2BR home in a quiet neighborhood. Great condition! Pride of ownership evident. Hardwood floors. Fireplace. Nice cute layout. Offers a walk up attic for extra storage, perhaps to finish for extra space. An unfinished basement, perhaps could be finished as well. Furnace/Central Air 2017, Newer windows, partially fenced back yard. Nothing to do in this home unless you just want to.You must see this charming 2BR home in a quiet neighborhood. Great condition!
