Ideally located within walking distance to shops, restaurants, and all that the Farms has to offer, this delightful bungalow blends classic character with everyday convenience. A spacious, covered front porch welcomes you—a perfect spot to relax and unwind on lazy afternoons. Step inside to find beautiful hardwood floors and a light-filled living room, highlighted by a marble-surround fireplace and a large picture window that fills the space with natural light. The open floor plan flows seamlessly into a charming dining room featuring a built-in cabinet and a French door leading to a sun-drenched sunroom overlooking the expansive, fully fenced backyard—perfect for entertaining or enjoying a quiet morning coffee. Two generously sized bedrooms and a full bath complete the main floor. Upstairs, you’ll find a large primary suite flooded with natural light and offering a private retreat. The full basement offers a laundry area, recreation room, abundant storage, and a separate utility room. Situated on an irregularly sized lot with dual driveways from both Bournemouth and Mack—ideal for boat or RV storage. And yes, there's a spacious two-car garage to top it all off. Don’t miss your chance to call this gem home!
