About this home
For the first time in over 30 years, this hidden gem is on the market—and it’s packed with charm! Enjoy huge bedrooms, oversized closets, and laundry right outside the master for everyday convenience. The all-seasons room overlooks more than a half acre right in town, while the finished lower level brings fun with a full bar, half bath, and an extra nonconforming bedroom. Outside, you’ll find a great patio for summer nights, an attached two-car garage, and a bonus shed that stays. Major upgrades include Renewal by Andersen windows less than 5 years old, leaf-guard gutters, a Bath Fitter walk-in shower, a reverse osmosis drinking water system, and a water softener. This one won’t last—come see it before it’s gone!
