Hardwood floors add warmth and character, while the primary bedroom features new carpeting. Both bedrooms have nicely sized closets for everyday storage, and the spacious living room offers flexibility for arranging your furniture and creating a comfortable gathering space.
But perhaps one of this home's greatest assets is its versatility! The second bedroom, dining area, and basement offer opportunities to create spaces that fit the way YOU live.

A breakfast bar separates the kitchen and dining area, giving you the freedom to arrange these spaces to suit your needs. Downstairs, the clean, orderly basement features abundant shelving and room for a variety of uses. The integral garage features an automatic door with keypad entry and direct access into the home. Park inside, stay inside, and enjoy the convenience of coming and going without facing the elements!
Outside, discover a spacious, nearly quarter-acre yard with a fenced area that's visible from the covered patio and the kitchen door and window. The 25 x 11 covered patio offers plenty of room for outdoor entertaining and enjoyment, while the remaining yard provides even more possibilities! Whether you enjoy gardening, hosting outdoor gatherings, pursuing outdoor hobbies, recreation, or simply relaxing in your own backyard retreat, there's room to make it happen. An included storage shed keeps lawn equipment, gardening tools, seasonal items, and recreational gear neatly tucked away.
Important updates include a roof replaced in 2022, sewer line serviced in 2026, and a newer hot water tank. With solid brick construction, valuable improvements, generous outdoor space, and the freedom to make each space your own, this home offers remarkable versatility and value. Discover the possibilities waiting for you at 249 Alder Street!
