Charming, beautifully updated, and move-in ready, this is a home that feels easy to love from the moment you walk in. The bright, renovated kitchen is the heart of the home, featuring crisp white cabinetry, distinctive countertops, open shelving, and stainless steel appliances added in 2023. It flows naturally into the cozy living room, creating an inviting layout for both everyday living and entertaining. Two well-appointed bedrooms and a full bath complete the first floor, while new luxury vinyl plank flooring and fresh paint carry throughout the first and second levels. Upstairs, the flexible layout can be used as two separate rooms or one spacious retreat, offering options for bedrooms, a playroom, studio, or additional living space. The finished lower level provides even more usable space and is ready for cosmetic updates to make it your own. A 2025 smart washer and dryer and plenty of additional storage add everyday convenience. Outside, the desirable corner lot offers a private backyard with room to relax, entertain, and enjoy gardening in the large metal raised beds that will remain for the next owner. A detached one-car garage provides additional storage, along with plenty of off-street parking. With town water and sewer, a newer heating system, vinyl siding, and a 2021 roof, many of the big-ticket items are already in place. Conveniently located just minutes from downtown and major routes.
