This is the house you have been waiting for to get you into the desirable town of Shrewsbury! Centrally located on a street that is right next to the public library with no through traffic, this 3BR 2BA ranch is only 0.7 mi to Paton School, and 1.1 mi to Dean Park. You can enjoy the convenience of Shrewsbury downtown AND a tranquil neighborhood at the same time. The bright, freshly painted main level has re-finished hardwood floor throughout. Brand new updates also include granite kitchen countertop and sink, recessed lights in living room, ceiling lights in all bedrooms, main floor bathroom vanity, and hot water tank. The update list goes much longer when counting projects in recent years – roof, driveways, pebble walkway, washer and dryer, range… The finished basement with vinyl flooring offers additional versatile living space and a full bath. Ample parking spaces including a one-car garage, 3 off-street and plenty on-street parking for this corner lot. This house is move-in ready!
