On the first floor you will find a large foyer, living room and formal dining room separated by a wide opening with decorative columns, a spacious eat-in-kitchen kitchen, and a half bath. Upstairs are four bedrooms and a full bath; one of the bedrooms features a coffered ceiling, built-in bookshelves, and access to a porch. The attic is accessed by a hatch on the second floor and there is a full basement with new wood floors and plenty of storage space. High ceilings throughout; wood floors on the first level and carpet upstairs. Roof was replaced in spring of 2021. The heating system dates from 2012 and has an attached Superstore hot water tank. All but one window were replaced approximately 10 years ago. Private yard, composite front porch, and upper level porch (also composite). Fantastic location near Teele sq and the Dilboy field.
