Such a gem. Lovingly cared for 3 Bedroom 2 Bath home. Hardwood floors high ceilings loads of charm. The front porch greets you and welcomes you home. So much to love here. Very nice roomy kitchen with separate dining area. Appliances newer in 2016 & 2018. Complete tear off roof in 2012. Furnace and a/c under ten years old. Big Big Bonus the home has been completely water proofed and new drain tiles installed in 2013. The basement is partially finished with plenty of room for storage. Fully fenced yard, 2 Car detached garage. Great Location, very close to Brookfield Zoo, Library, and Kiwanis Park.
