OPEN HOUSE, SUNDAY from NOON-2:00PM. Less than a 15-minute drive from campus, this 3 bedroom, 3 bath home has been updated with style and character. An addition to the house transformed the kitchen into being the "heart" of the home, surrounded by the family room w/ fireplace, sunroom, dining room and living room. Large windows provide natural light to the family room and sunroom as well as a view of the spacious deck surrounding the above ground pool. The master bedroom with full bath, a laundry, and a second bedroom and full bath complete the main level. Downstairs, the rec room with a second fireplace, and the third bedroom and full bath complete the home interior. Walk through the garage, to a 400+square foot workshop. Outside, as if a backyard pool wasn't enough, Fairbrook Park is located directly across the street. This 29 acre park includes baseball and soccer fields, a picnic pavilion, playground and multi-use path surrounding the park with scenic views and woods to enjoy.
