This brick colonial has a picturesque front porch where you can enjoy a cup of coffee surrounded by lush landscaping. Stepping through the front door you will notice a spacious living room with a wood burning fireplace, wooden floors, and abundant lighting. A lovely room to cozy up in during a cold winter's day. To the right of the living room is a formal dining room. This room has ample natural light with the bay window that is front and center. A large dining table can fit in this room for your guests during your next dinner party. Through the dining room is the bright updated kitchen (2020).

Stepping through the kitchen to the back of the house is another spacious room. This room has a quaint space for eating meals, a spot for watching television, and a half bath with a new toilet. On the rear wall of this room are new Pella sliding doors (with built in blinds) that lead to the new Trex deck (2019). There is plenty of room for grilling and enjoying a delicious meal with guests on this low maintenance deck. Stretching behind this deck is a very spacious backyard that contains a extra lot, and is a rare commodity for this neighborhood. There is plenty of room to expand or build an addition in the future. A new fence was installed in 2021 to enclose the yard. There is also an adorable shed with a new roof (2017) in the yard to store all of your outdoor tools. Once back in the house and in the front living room you will take the steps that have a beautiful wooden railing to the second floor. There are four bedrooms on the 2nd floor in various sizes. In the primary bedroom there is a custom closet for storing all your clothes. In the full main bathroom there is a new toilet and new floors. In addition, there was cellulose insulation blown into the attic in 2017. Back to the first floor and into the kitchen you will find the steps to the basement. The basement space has a french drain and new sump pump with battery back up to make sure that the space stays very dry. The washer and dryer are also housed in the basement. Some additional perks to this home are new paint in most of the house, five new windows, new blower in furnace, new bathtub drain line, new oil tank in 2017, back up generator inlet, new furnace chimney lining in 2017, custom window treatments, and two new storm doors.
