Description

This home has a hidden feature you will want to discover!

All 3 bedrooms are on the main floor all the bedrooms have decent closet space and plenty of room for furniture. There is a main floor full bathroom with a jetted tub with a shower. There is a nice foyer entry into this home with great closet space too. The kitchen has all the space that you need and updated appliances. There is an informal dining area attached to the kitchen. But wait, there is more, and we haven't even told you about the big secret yet! The living room is huge and has an area that was previously used as a second informal dining area. This room has 1 of the 2 wood burning fireplaces. Next is the huge sunroom with so many windows! These windows look out on the huge, fully fenced back yard. Now for the hidden feature. This home has an enormous full poured concrete basement with no visible leakage or cracks. This space has a ton of potential. The is an area that is partially set up as a second kitchen. There is a second set of laundry hook-ups. There is a large family room that is partially finished with tongue and groove paneling and a second woodburning fireplace. A toilet is set up in an area that would make an excellent 3rd bathroom, and there is a huge area that could easily be a 4th, non conforming bedroom or a conforming bedroom after an egress window was installed. Another hidden features is the alley that is along the fence in the back yard. This alley could be great access for a future garage and provides a hidden place for your garbage and recycling cans.
