Beautiful well maintained home with a large 3 car garage. There is pride in ownership and it really shows in this 4 bed 2 bath home in Benton. Sellers have loved and maintained this home for 20+ years but now it's time to move on. Nicely updated inside and out including a brand new roof this year, totally rewiring in 1995 with 200 amp service. Also added in 2000, a large 36' x 40' 3 car garage/workshop. You will love the comfortable feeling in the full finished basement complete with full bath, laundry and kitchenette. This one is a must see!! Call to schedule an appointment today.
