Description

This three bedroom, two bathroom quad-level home has been in the same family since it was built and has been well loved. Located on a corner lot, there is a large side yard and a beautiful magnolia tree that is a sight to see when in full bloom. Nicely landscaped with perennials. Stone and siding exterior. This well built home was quality built in its day. Formal living room has a large picture window the sun shines through. Two built-in China cabinets and two built in credenzas in the formal dining room; great for storage and you can also use the upper portions as bookcases and the lower portions as serving counters. The large kitchen has a breakfast counter, updated cooktop, wall oven, recessed lighting, microwave can stay, and a split Dutch door that exists to the back yard - handy for pets so you can have it half open for a breeze, yet the pets won't jump on a screen. Upper level has hardwood floors with three bedrooms, hallway with built-in storage, and a full bathroom with elegant tile. Large family room in "lower level" is above grade level as well, full exposure, windows let in plenty of light, closet and storage space; currently used as a fourth bedroom, and has a wood burning fireplace set in a wall of stone. Large updated laundry room has a sink and is above grade level that has a door providing direct access to the back yard. Relax this summer on the paver patio. Ceiling fans and window air conditioners cool the home with no problem and several are included. Plenty of storage areas throughout home. In addition to the three living levels, there is a basement under the main part of the home for the fourth level that is decent sized and offers a lot of space for storage and a steel beam support. Storage shed on large cement pad if you want to place a larger shed on it. Fiber optic high speed internet available. Security system. Roof complete tear off approx. 10 years ago with 30 year shingles. New water softener & water heater 2021. Easy access to I90 and Business (Bypass) 20 for commuting.

    "the police and sheriff department are down the block as well as the court house and county jail there is a lot of semi truck traffic because of 2 warehouses the speed limit is 25 mph and these trucks do not follow the speed limit as well as the factory workers driving down the street like it's a NASCAR track there are a lot of children on this block and it's going to take a child getting hit by a vehicle to have the police or sheriff's department patrol more frequently mind you both departments are less than 1 block away"
