Welcome to Walnut Hill's corner lot Cape! Enjoy the charm of this 1940's house with Crown molding in the living room, chair railing in the dining room but also enjoy granite countertops in the kitchen and new fixtures throughout. In 2018 a new roof was put on along with a new upstairs HVAC unit, updated plumbing, electrical and the installation of insulation under the house. Downstairs is a comfortable living room that opens to the dining room. The kitchen, featuring stainless steel appliances is next to the dining room and also exits to the utility room and backyard entrance. Off the dining room is an office/playroom/extra bedroom with a closet and view of the backyard. The upstairs could be used as a private master suite or guest floor. The additional walk-in attic space across from the large upstairs bedroom is ready for someone to convert it to a closet or bedroom. The entire house has refinished hardwood floors and tile in the kitchen and bathrooms. A parking pad is inside the chain link fence with double gate in the back with easy access to the utility/kitchen back door. The generous corner lot allows for plenty of space for gardening and play.
