Inside, you'll find a welcoming living room filled with natural light, hardwood flooring throug
hout much of the home, and a comfortable layout that connects the living, dining, and kitchen areas.

Just off the main living area, an enclosed sunroom offers a versatile space to enjoy throughout the seasons.

One of the property's most impressive features is the expansive full basement, offering approximately 1,272 square feet of unfinished space with multiple storage areas and plenty of room for a workshop, hobbies, or future improvements. Outside, the oversized detached garage, measuring approximately 28 by 23 feet, provides exceptional space for vehicles, tools, recreational equipment, and all your beach essentials.

The outdoor space is equally appealing, featuring a large, open yard, mature trees, a rear deck perfect for relaxing or entertaining, and plenty of room to enjoy the outdoors.
