Don't miss this charming 3 bedroom 2 bath gem. It looks like an A-Frame but doesn't feel like one. The owner has lovingly updated the home but kept its rustic charm. Beautiful wood floors, brick accents in the kitchen, one level living for you and guest bedrooms on the second floor. All the benefits of living in a city such as city water and sewer, cable tv and internet through Spectrum, but a small town to fall in love with. The home sits on .61 acres on the top of a hill with no houses compromising the seasonal view. You have a 1 car carport but long driveway for your guests. There is an extra storage building on the edge of the property to the right. Walking distance to the Miracle Grounds Coffee Shop & Cafe, the post office and the Blair Frailey store. Come see it today!!
