Description
Check out this beautiful three bedroom two bathroom home located on a corner lot! Although the original house and basement were built in 1898, it was taken down to the studs in 1981. At which time the garage and porch were added on and the roof lines were updated. The kitchen offers lots of work space as well as storage plus a pantry for extra storage. The kitchen, dining, and living room all open up to one another creating easy flow. There is an abundance of light streaming in throughout the main floor. Make yourself at home in the beautiful living room with lots of character from wood beams and a wood burning fireplace. Three spacious bedrooms, one full bathroom, a 3/4 bath, and laundry are all conveniently located on the main floor. Upstairs you will find a large attic space that has the potential to be finished to add more living space. Downstairs is more unfinished space and storage. The garage has tall ceilings and as well as more storage. To finish off, the front porch is the perfect spot to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee or a conversation with a friend, the backyard has various options for entertaining, and the curb appeal and ambiance are just gorgeous! Do not miss out!
