About this home

Wow! Newly remodeled home offers a lot of value for the money. ALL NEW KITCHEN AND BATH -- not to mention replacement windows, hardwood floors, electrical service and plumbing have all just been done. Additionally, there's nearly new appliances and bedroom carpets. A one car attached garage and backyard storage shed so there's plenty of room for your "stuff". All this on a nice flat lot, with the house set well back from the road for privacy. Nothing to do but move right in and enjoy!
