Description

Just in time for summer, relax on the deck & beat the heat in the pool of your 4BR, 2.5BA colonial home! You'll love the central location close to both the bridge & the courthouse for convenience in shopping, dining, and commuting. With almost 1900SF, this home boasts a large living room as well as a spacious den with fireplace for cozying up on chilly winter nights. There's a formal dining room, but the kitchen area has plenty of space for your table & chairs. Don't need a 4th bedroom? Make one a home office, craft room, or gym. The front yard is large so the house is set way back from the road. The lot is park-like & great for enjoying nature's beauty. So many updates including newer flooring, HVAC, roof, dishwasher, & garage door. Crawl space is encapsulated w/dehumidifier for added peace of mind. Don't blink or you'll miss it! Schedule your showing today!
