The kitchen has a light colored countertop and a complimentary subway style backsplash, double stainless sink and fixtures. All three bedrooms are on the same side of the home and all have hardwood flooring which is in excellent condition. What makes this home even more unique is its lower level which measures 38 X 19 and has what could be a bedroom area along with a full bath plus a walkout to the spacious rear yard and its own gas fireplace!
