Nothing better than being able to buy a home; move in and not have to work on things immediately. With this home all the fuss will be made over who will be doing all the packing to be able to get moved in quickly. With 3 bedrooms and a separate laundry/mud room you will have room to actually set up an office and be able to work from home in an environment out of the home to keep business and home life separate. Also the home offers a basement under the back half of the home allowing for extra storage space. The home was extensively remodeled in 2015-2016 to include a new kitchen, flooring throughout, heat system and roof shingles. Do you have pets and want to know where your cherished animals are while you are working from home? Worry less with the fencing surrounding the back yard to keep them safe. Let's make this your next home today!
