About this home
Quality built 3 BR, 1.5 Bath home by Don Johnson on .64 acre (mol)! An addition built in 1976 added a Family Room, Dining area, & large deck to the already spacious home. Beautiful buffet in DR stays if buyer desires. Open floor plan on main level accommodates large gatherings. Rec Room on lower level is the perfect spot for pool table, play area, or man cave, or it could easily become a 4th BR if needed. New roof 2006. Attached 2-car garage. Great location near shopping & restaurants. Home has been hooked up to city sewer and to city water at seller's expense. Must see!
