About this home

Absolutely charming Cape style home on a quiet side street that is within walking distance of both the WYOMING HILL COMMUTER RAIL stop and the OAK GROVE T. This lovingly maintained home, owned by the same family for decades, is now ready for new owners who will love and cherish it as the present owner does. The open concept of the living room and dining room create a wonderful entertaining area with direct access to the eat-in kitchen which is vintage but in near perfect condition. Three bedrooms, (third bedroom is currently being used as a family room,) and a full bath complete the interior. Enjoy the soon to arrive warm weather in a large, level, fenced in yard beautifully landscaped with perennials and a brick planter. CENTRAL AC! Whether you are a first time buyer or looking to downsize and have all your living space on one floor, this home fits the bill! Downtown restaurants and shopping are nearby.
