About this home

Country setting with an easily manageable yard! The quaint brick home sits on just under an acre and has a large pole building with a new electrical panel. Inside the home, you'll find a remodeled kitchen, a remodeled bathroom, updated plumbing, electrical, and a newer HVAC unit. The one car attached garage conveniently walks into the mudroom just down from the kitchen/dining area. Spend your summer nights out on the covered patio or create a bonus area in the dry, unfinished basement. The basement has been waterproofed by Wood's Basement and had drains and sump pump installed as well. Schedule your showing today! Ask your agent for the complete list of updates!
