Very well maintained home just 2 doors down from the Elementary school. Large yard that backs up to the ball diamond in the distance. This is an estate so no disclosures. An informational sheet is posted on the MLS. All appliances stay except for a microwave that is reserved. One main bedroom on the main level and one in the completely finished attic. The lower level is partially finished and was used as a rec room. Flowers and plantings galore set off this nice home with mature trees and a fire pit out back. Plenty of yard for a garden in addition to the rhubarb plants. Nice solid home. Don't let it get by without taking a look.
