Inside, the bright living room features tile flooring, a cozy brick fireplace, and large windows dressed in flowing curtains that fill the space with natural light. The galley-style kitchen is well-appointed with granite countertops, white cabinetry, a stainless steel French door refrigerator, and a gas range perfect for any home cook. The home is currently configured as one bedroom with a flex room that offers strong potential to serve as a second bedroom, office, or hobby space. The updated bathroom features wood-look flooring, a walk-in shower, and a cabinet vanity. Step outside and the true value of this property reveals itself, with a large brick paver patio, a detached red barn-style storage shed, mature trees, rose bushes, and a fully enclosed yard with ample parking along the long driveway.
