Description

Back on the market with a brand new roof! The long time owners of this house have gone above and beyond repairing this home and replaced the roof, not only on the house, but the garage as well to make sure everything is ready for you to move right in! Originally a bungalow, the owners have made a multitude of additions and updates over the years to keep it comfortable and modern for the next generation, while still maintaining some classic charm with features like hard-wood floors throughout and a welcoming stained glass front door. After walking in from the covered front porch, the first level features an open concept living and dining room that flows out to the backyard, a beautiful eat-in kitchen with matching slate finish appliances, a first-floor bedroom that could serve as the perfect home office, and a full bathroom. The upstairs level had the roof raised to accommodate two well-apportioned bedrooms, a convenient laundry room, and a second full bathroom. The primary bedroom features a walk-in closet, the bathroom was remodeled in 2016 to add plenty of cabinet and counter space, and the spacious laundry room also gives easy access to the furnace and the tankless water heater. The backyard is fenced on 3 sides and highlighted by a large 24’ above ground pool that was just re-lined in 2024 and a large two-level composite deck for easy swimming access. The oversized garage has an 18’ door to easily fit 2 cars and whatever you can’t fit in the back shed. As if this home doesn’t have enough going for it, its convenient location gives you easy access to all of Mentor’s great amenities. Schedule your showing today!
