About this home
There's a rhythm to mornings on this street, coffee on the covered front porch, watching the neighborhood wake up before the day gets going. Inside, main-level living means the everyday stuff doesn't involve stairs, but there's still bonus space tucked upstairs for whoever needs a quiet corner, a home office, or just more room to spread out. Out back, the deck runs wide enough for a table and chairs, room to enjoy an afternoon beveragino or just watch the sky change color, all framed by the partially fenced yard that gives room to garden, let the dog wander, or just breathe without worrying about the property line. The roof is approximately six years old, and the home got new paint and siding a couple years back. And then there's the location, a short walk puts you at the amazing Penny Park and the kind of small-town vibe where errands are quick and the pace feels unhurried. This isn't just about bedroom count and square footage, it's about slowing down and being comfortable in a home you actually want to be in.

Picture this...coffee steaming on the covered front porch while the neighborhood slowly wakes up around you. Step inside and everyday life stays simple, main-level living means the kitchen, living room, and bedrooms flow together without a single stair in the way. Upstairs, a bonus space is tucked away for whatever you need most, a home office, a reading nook, a hobby room, or just somewhere quiet to spread out.On cooler evenings, the gas fireplace turns the living room into the kind of spot you don't want to leave, and when the weather turns warm, the huge back deck is ready for a table and chairs, a good meal with friends or family, or just a quiet night watching the sky shift colors as the evening settles in. The partially fenced yard gives you room to garden, let the dog roam, or just enjoy some outdoor space without worrying about the property line.Out back, a detached garage and a separate shop add real flexibility, park a car, store the gear for whatever hobby needs the space, or use it as extra storage that most homes this size simply don't have. With four total parking spots between the garage and the driveway, there's room for guests, a second vehicle, or a project car without a second thought.The bones of this one are solid, concrete block foundation, double-pane storm windows for year-round comfort, and a roof that's only about six years old. New paint and siding went on a couple years back, so the outside looks as cared for as the inside feels. No HOA means the freedom to make this place yours without anyone else's rulebook to follow.Then there's the location, a short walk to the beloved Penny Park, with that easy, small-town pace where errands are quick and evenings feel unhurried. This isn't a house you just check boxes on, it's one where you actually want to slow down, sit on the porch a little longer, and call it home.
