About this home
Charming Craftsman on nearly half an acre with a country feel while staying close to town and everyday amenities. 2 bed, 1 bath with additional flex space and bonus room upstairs, giving you options as your needs change over time. The layout offers a bit more flexibility than you’d expect, whether you need a work-from-home setup or just some separation between spaces. The home is well-kept, and the metal roof still has plenty of life remaining, offering peace of mind on a major component. The fully fenced yard and garden space provide extra room to spread out, with space for projects, parking, or simply having some outdoor area to make your own. Comfortable as-is, with opportunities to add value over time. Come take a look and see if it’s the right fit.
