A newer roof, newer chimney, and new solar heat along with fresh paint and recently refinished bathrooms make this house maintenance free for years to come. Out back is a paver patio along with two sheds and a large yard that is completely fenced in. Inside the front door you are greeted with hardwood floors that continue throughout the entire house.

Plenty of windows on the first floor fill the house with natural light each with custom adjustable cordless shades. The eat-in kitchen has plenty of cabinet and counter space with a new backsplash making it functional and stylish. Downstairs is a finished basement adding more living space along with a workshop and additional storage area. Upstairs are three bedrooms each with ample closet space and an updated full bathroom. A large attic space sits above it all giving you ample storage and easy access when needed. The driveway is electric vehicle ready with a power source for convenience. This property is in a great location with lots to offer including peace of mind for its new owner for years to come.
