About this home

Adorable 3 Bedroom, 2 Bath Home in the Heart of Columbia! This charming home is packed with updates and character throughout! The kitchen was completely redone in 2023, featuring new cabinets, appliances, built-in pantry with spice rack, and a cozy built-in bench—perfect for family meals or morning coffee. You’ll love the new LVP flooring that flows seamlessly across the main floor, giving the home a fresh and modern feel. The bathroom was tastefully updated in 2021, and the finished basement adds even more living space with a family room, bathroom/laundry combo, and a third bedroom with an egress window and walk-in closet—ideal for guests or a private retreat. Outside, enjoy peace of mind with a new roof on both the home and detached garage, plus freshly painted siding that enhances the home’s curb appeal. Located in the heart of Columbia, this home offers small-town charm with easy access to local shops, parks, and restaurants. Schedule your private showing today.
