About this home
Move-in ready charm meets modern peace of mind! This updated 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom bungalow perfectly balances original character with essential modern upgrades. The exterior shines with a brand-new roof, siding, and gutters, while the interior features a bright, efficient floor plan.
Major "behind-the-scenes" work is already done, including a preventative foundation anchor, with a 25 year warranty for ultimate long-term security. The owner is committed to finishing the job right and will be laying grass seed in the affected area once weather permits; a credit may also be provided if closing occurs prior to the seeding season.
Inside, the full basement offers incredible versatility for a home theater or gym. The real showstopper? An oversized, fully fenced-in backyard providing a private outdoor oasis rarely seen at this price point. Clean, turn-key, and ready for you to call it home. Schedule your showing today!
