About this home

Charming, well-maintained cottage ready for its next owner! The main floor showcases refinished hardwood floors, arched doorways connecting the living and dining spaces, original hardware, built-in shelving, and French doors leading to a three-season room. Two nicely sized bedrooms and a full bathroom complete the main level, with a fun bonus feature--a laundry chute! The second floor serves as the home's third bedroom, offering additional space and flexibility. The clean basement provides plenty of storage and potential for more finished living space. Outside, enjoy a detached one-car garage and private backyard with no rear neighbors. Major updates offer peace of mind, with the appliances, HVAC system, air conditioner, and water heater all new within the last four years.
