AMAZING price point AND this home has been given a complete makeover. If you are searching for your first home or downsizing, this gem may be the one you are looking for! Why bother with projects when you can appreciate all the work that has been done and move right in! Let’s begin with the kitchen- New flooring, upgraded cabinets, stainless steel appliances & fresh paint. Modern kitchen features an area for a bistro table or add a breakfast nook w/ a bench & table. BEAUTIFUL hardwood floors have just been refinished. They are stunning and flow through the remainder of the main level. Family rm offers plenty of space to accommodate larger pieces of furniture & the windows bring in tons of natural light. Bathroom has been modernized w/ new flooring, vanity & light fixture. 1 car garage, partially fenced yard, & mature trees make up your backyard space.
