The basement appears to have been setup as a separate living quarters. The owner's suite was surprisingly nice but the A/C unit located in an adjacent crawl space may be a bit noisy. Not sure what is going on with the sewer line occasionally backing...

WOW describes this home! It was carefully & professionally expanded & renovated by a builder with all new systems including plumbing, heating, electrical & roofing, but it did not end there. Now it is a prize worth catching. Located on a quiet street & only a short walk to shopping & schools. The expansion included a new full dormer across the rear of the second floor & two new dormers in the front, which now gives light, bright & spacious second floor which includes a large MBR w/ full tile bath, a second BR & large public area that could be an office. The first floor has a front kitchen w/ cherry cabinets, stainless appliances, full tile backsplash & beautiful granite countertops, living room, 3rd BR/dining room/den, large utility/mud room & a new tile bath. The gleaning hardwood floors with a rich cherry finish extend throughout the first floor & up the steps to the second floor. The LL has a full walkout family room, second kitchen area, new PR & 4th BR. This was a complete rebuild. 1-car garage.
