About this home

This well-maintained home is set back from Wards Road under large shade trees. The 0.64-acre lot is mainly level. Relax in the evenings on the back deck. When the weather gets cooler, bring the family together in the large den with a wood-burning brick fireplace. Three bedrooms on the main level is great for families with younger children or for home offices. Fourth bedroom and bath on the lower level would be good for guests or a teenager who wants his or her own space. There is also a two-bay detached garage (32' x 28') which would make a great man cave or room for additional cars. Per the owner, in 2019, there was a new back deck and new compressor. In 2018, a new 30-year roof and a new pump for the well. Hook-up to county water is now available. The owner is also offering a one-year home warranty.
