Description

Classic charm meets modern updates in this well-maintained 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath American four-square home. With spacious rooms and a thoughtful layout, this home offers both comfort and functionality for everyday living. Recent improvements provide peace of mind and added convenience. In 2025, a half bath was added on the main floor, the upstairs bathroom was completely remodeled, and a new air conditioning compressor was installed. The updates continue with a new furnace, sewer line, refrigerator, and stove in 2024, new roof on the main home in 2026, plus a new water heater and sump pump in 2023-big-ticket items already taken care of for you. Step outside and you'll find a fantastic open front porch, a professionally landscaped yard and an oversized 24' x 36' heated two-car garage that truly stands out. With one extra-large door tall enough to accommodate a camper and a TV already in place, it's the perfect space for hobbies, projects, or simply relaxing. The outdoor space is just as inviting, featuring a charming brick sidewalk and an adorable playhouse or potting shed that adds character and versatility to the yard. This home has been clearly cared for over the years and is ready for its next chapter-offering a blend of timeless style, solid updates, and plenty of room to enjoy.
