This 1/2 acre is unbelievably private. You feel like there are no neighbors. Easy to care for with laminate flooring and granite tops in the kitchen and vanity. Beautiful bath remodel with glass swinging door in shower, new vanity and toilet. You'll enjoy sitting on the front porch and in front of the fireplace. Large shed for storage space. Lots of blooming shrubs for your enjoyment. Fireplace was cleaned and inspected 12/20, replumbed, moisture barrier put down and new roof in 2022. Fridge, and W/D stay. Really a nice place you don't want to miss.
