Nice maintenance-free brick home in a great location. No flood plain. Extra big 2.5 car detached garage just outside the back door. Lots of mature trees give plenty of shade to the raised deck pergola and the big, private backyard. Backyard is almost entirely privacy-fenced. This home is much larger that it appears. 3 bedrooms and full bath upstairs; 1 bedroom and bath downstairs. HUGE living room with woodburning fireplace. Nice office with separate entrance. Updated kitchen has corian countertops, nice backsplash and custom italian ceramic undermount sink. All appliances, including washer and dryer, will stay. Hardwood floors are under all carpeting. Hotwater heat. Window AC units will stay. Bonus room on main floor could be den or additional bedroom. Call for appointment!
