About this House

Great 2 bedroom bungalow in an established neighborhood. Enjoy the open concept with the large kitchen, dining area, and living all open to each other popular in much newer homes. Not only are there 2 good sized bedrooms but one is a true master suite with its own bath! Plenty of additional options for finish in the basement as well. Outside you find both a covered patio as well as a deck in addition to the 2+ car garage (2 car door but big enough for 3). Private alley access is another convenient bonus. The roof was new in 2020 and the HVAC new in 2024 so all the major expenses have been done for you! Schedule a showing today!
