Very cute cottage on a quiet street near Mifflin Schools, near shopping, and convenient to most everything. Harwood floors, newer windows, enclosed rear sunroom with a newer roof, many plants in there, and access to rear yard. The back yard is large and level, with trees, roses, forsythia, holly, honeysuckle, a curly willow tree and other interesting perennials. Two brick patio areas, fenced in yard, small koi pond and a shed that looks like a dollhouse. Patio on west side has an arbor with wisteria that shades in the summer. Kitchen has lots of cabinets, gas range, double sink, open soffit and door to the enclosed porch/sunroom . 1 bedroom on the first floor, and a full bathroom. Upstairs is some finished space including a small room with a closet, and another larger room used as a bedroom, built-in drawers, eaves storage. In the basement is a semi-finished area that is used as a bedroom, paneled, and a small office area. There is a stall shower and a toilet in the basement. Laundry area has a laundry sink.
