Description

"Cead Mile Failte" (One Hundred Thousand Welcomes) is the phrase that meets you at the front door of this beautiful home, and a more welcoming home and setting you will not find. Tucked back in an idyllic neighborhood, this Classic American 2 story is centrally located within walking distance to parks, churches, schools and downtown. Built in 1980, the inside is completely updated and opened up with new bathroom vanities and fixtures, new hardwood and ceramic tile floors, new lighting fixtures, new paint, and a beautifully opened-up kitchen, complete with "like-new" cabinets and stainless steel appliances. Each of the bedrooms has own walk-in closet and ceiling fan. The Master bedroom boasts an additional Master bath with large whirlpool tub and separate shower. And there is no shortage of storage with a full unfinished basement, attic storage room, and a two and a half car garage with work area. Out back, the new stamped patio opens up to a large flat lot with mature trees with plenty of room for ball games, a jungle gym or even a pool. If you are a family looking to move then this is the house you've been waiting for. This home is ideal for kids, grandkids and friends alike. There is simply no way you could build this home today for this price. This is a deal so Don't Miss Out! Call today for an appointment!

    "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."
