Description

We are selling our childhood home in Homewood Subdivision. A rare ONE-OWNER home built in 1952 that was built, cared for and updated over the years by one of the area’s best carpenters!

The main floor is 1479 sq ft with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. The living room is accented by a front bay window and features a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace. A spacious kitchen/dining room combo features plenty of storage. More storage in the basement which is divided between a laundry room and another living area. The guest bedroom leads to a sunroom with an abundance of natural light.

Exit the sunroom to the backyard and you will be greeted by a gazebo, a beautiful rock garden and a grape vine that borders the rear property. This property would be perfect for the right homeowner!

    "Christ church, AMCTheater, schools, park, skate park, edge of town, shopping, minutes from down town."
  • Kathleen T.
    "Farmers market! And just so many alcohol in the courtyard events. I mean, there’s the artisan fair with the craft beer, craft wine, and craft whiskey as the big event. Then there’s the food events featuring spirits as the main event. And also, of course, the craft beer and craft liquor events."
  • Kathleen W.
    "Public and private schools are excellent. There’s a surprising amount of predators in such a small town."
  • Lee.querubin
    "Area has limited public transportation. Mostly residents use private vehicles but roads are not crowded."
