Beautiful, warm, welcoming home on a lovely 1/2 acre lot with lots of welcoming shrubs and personality. This has been a home to the same family for many years and well maintained throughout that time both inside and out. The entry is tile and opens to the living room, kitchen, and toward the bedrooms. The home is very open overall with a circular floorplan that provides easy access throughout and lots of storage, too. Even the garage has extra space. I think you might be able to park 3 cars in it. There's also a big work area. The laundry room is huge, too, as is the walk in pantry. The family room has a step down fireplace area for the chilly winter days (although the fireplace hasn't been used for some years). On the current summer days, the screened porch is a delight. It could easily be made into a 4 season room. And the yard offers even more delights. The roof is approximately 10 years old. The newest items are the refrigerator, 1 yr, and dishwasher, 2. Rusty furnace in garage is for garage only. House furnace is a hot water baseboard heat furnace. Wonderful! Economical. House maintenance has occurred as needed. Would give $2000 allowance toward any buyers' desired cosmetic changes (paint?).
