Centrally located ranch with surprising style and personality. Two beds, two full baths, and a flex room perfect for a home office. Updated kitchen with granite countertops and gas range. Light filled sunroom provides dining and sitting area. Unfinished basement and walk up attic with spray foam insulation and tons of floored storage space. Live among the trees in almost an acre of naturally wooded landscape with patio area and fire pit. In a location much more private than the address would imply.
