This home is located very close to the downtown where there is ample shopping, good restaurants, a movie theater, a natural-organic foods co-op, waterfront, a harbor walk and more. What was once a very regular 1970's ranch style home has been totally renovated and transformed into, what I would call a Craftsman Bungalow Hybrid. Enter into a cozy warm living room and dining room with cathedral ceiling and beautifully crafted white pine woodwork. The kitchen also with a cathedral ceiling is b laid out efficiently and would be a very satisfying space to work in for any real cook. The hallway to the attached garage is also home to a very private efficient office space. Louvered doors in the hallway open up to the full sized washer and dryer. A little further down the hallway is a bathroom. This was the original and only bathroom before the renovation. Paint, new flooring, new vanity, shower and toilet were all good upgrades to this space. . Across from the bathroom is a guest room and at the end of the hallway is the primary bedroom which boasts a very ample walk in closet and attached full bathroom with a beautiful roll in Shower. A cedar shed in the back yard provides plenty of storage for extra household items as well as yard goods. A wonderful patio with granite benches, beautiful landscaping and stonework complete the picture. Don't let this one slip away.
