Welcome to the Forest section of beautiful Verona. This 3 bed/ 2 bath side hall colonial is centrally located near the elementary school, Verona Park the downtown dining and shopping district. Crafted in 1939, this house has been updated and renovated for todays lifestyle. All windows in the home were replaced 6 months ago and the plantation window treatments round them out perfectly. The entire first floor was renovated back in 2018. Kitchen opens up into the dining room and there's an addition that was built on the back of the house to give a den/family room with a separate door to the back yard and trex deck. 3 good sized bedrooms and a main bath make up the second floor. Pull down stairs lead you to a stand up attic used as storage. Basement flooring was replaced months ago with a non-slip tile and also boasts a private laundry room as well as workout space and additional get away space.
