About this home

Great starter home that has been well maintained! Updated kitchen overlooking the backyard. Beautiful bay window shaded by the large maple tree. Hardwood floors under carpet in all bedrooms, hallway and living room. Basement is partially finished with separate storage area. Gutter guard has transferable warranty and makes life easy when the trees show their beautiful colors. Nice landscaping around the home along with a great stamped concrete patio for entertaining. Street is quiet with minimal traffic. No neighbors behind so enjoy the large space without having to mow. Trains are silent, no horns, so open the windows to bring in the cool air in the fall and spring evenings.
