Description

This is one level living at its finest! This home has been totally updated throughout and not a detail spared in this renovation. The living room has gleaming, refinished hardwood floors. The kitchen has been fully renovated with new cabinets, granite counters, and stainless steel appliances. Spacious dining room for entertaining. Hardwood floors continue into all 3 bedrooms. Both bathrooms have been fully renovated. You'll fall in love with the fully finished basement that almost doubles the living space. Perfect for a rec room and a separate area for an office with its own storage closet. The backyard is fully fenced in and landscaping was just completed for your next BBQ. New roof (2017). Literally nothing to do but to unpack those bags and move right in!
