This Turn Key property in the very desirable Barber Neighborhood, will not last on the market. Have your agent help you write an offer today! This very adorable 1918 Cottage style home has had many up dates. Updated Electrical, updated plumbing, windows, newer paint inside and out. The perfect size county kitchen with gas range, dishwasher, stainless steal refrigerator, has been set up right to flow well, with both upper and lower cabinets to give you ample storage but enough room in the center of the kitchen to add that little island if wanted. The hand crafted metal work on the fences and driveway gate is absolutely beautifully done and adds to the outside decor, as well as new driveway concrete that allows multiple cars to park off street. The front yard is landscaped very nicely with a quaint covered front porch where you can sit and just relax. The back yard contains two large storage buildings with many uses (1) has had some work done to the outside and shows the potential of what they could look like. There also some raised flower/garden beds for those favorite items you may want to grow. The back yard area has recently been tilled and leveled out so the new buyers could create their own little world of peacefulness.
