Move right on in!!! This home has so much to offer with a nice big eat in kitchen with updated back splash and newer appliances. Large living room and two large bedrooms on the main level. Attached garage could be used multiple ways as it is recently drywalled and painted. Could very easily be converted into an added living space that features patio doors to the back deck that has an outdoor kitchen area. There is also a finished loft area in the garage which would make a great added storage or a little bonus fort area for kids. Lower level of the home is also completely finished with a large bathroom/laundry area and two finished bonus areas which could be converted to bedrooms or a home office.
