On the corner of Raleigh and Grove this perfectly located house is so much more than an average 3 bed-1 bath. This home has more square footage than average for this age home and this area. All the rooms are bigger than you would expect especially the Kitchen, which is big enough to hold everyone you know with a soaring vaulted ceiling. The Bath is huge with a double vanity and plenty of extra space. The dining room is bigger than average and the living room is perfect with tons of windows letting in plenty of natural light, a fireplace and space to live comfortably. The deck is the spot to be on nice days and the ample backyard is perfect for kids, dogs, games, etc. PLUS covered parking with storage, so hard to find in Homewood. This house checks all the boxes.
