About this House

Circa 1925, this charming 3-4 bedroom, 1.5 home has been lovingly updated but still has lots of character. The front porch is lovely to sit on and sip your coffee in the morning and/or enjoy the evening breeze with a cold drink. Enter through the leaded glass front door to the newly painted and carpeted living room. A colorful stain glass window detail each side of the pretty artificial fireplace and there is a built in book case as well. The spacious dining room has hardwood flooring and a built in unit currently used as a cool coffee bar. The cheery kitchen has loads of cabinets, newer appliances and tile flooring. One of the bonuses to this home is the large office which would also make a game room or family room. There is also a half bath here. Sliders open to the large deck and a very nice fenced in yard. Upstairs are three good sized bedrooms and an extra "room" which is currently being used a large walk in closet. The full bathroom on this floor has been updated to accommodate a walk-in shower. The 3rd floor offers another room which could easily make a 4th bedroom, study or yoga room. You decide! The basement has plenty of room to do the laundry and offers lots of storage. There is also a one car garage and two parking spaces out back. Call now and this home will surely not last!

    "There are lots of dogs in the park sometimes unleashed. So be careful with small ones. As far as I know, our neighborhood is quite safe. But you can hear time to time loud foreign music blasting from the car passing or partying neighbors house. "
