Description

Wow! Wonderful central location on this 1512 SF Bedford Stone home on two city lots! Very rare find for a city lot to be on a half acre. This 3 bedroom 2 bath home with a finished basement has plenty of space for a growing family! Need more space to entertain? Use the extra kitchen in the basement! This one owner home has been meticulously maintained, and is waiting for a new owner. There are oak hardwood floors under the flooring in the living room, hallway and all bedrooms. One room has already had the carpet removed to showcase the hardwood floors underneath! Contact your real estate agent today to look at this home!

    "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."
