Super cute cottage with tons of potential on nearly an acre of land with plenty of room for a pool. This 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom home has great bones and lives larger than its size. Hardwood floors and vaulted ceilings throughout the main living area open to the kitchen with brand new granite countertops. 2 guest bedrooms connect with a Jack and Jill bathroom. The master bedroom is very spacious, has an en-suite and opens to the screened porch, perfect for morning coffee. New HVAC put in about one year ago.
