About this home

The large unfinished basement is great for storage, homework projects or just hanging out! The detached two car garage offers more than just a place to park cars. Complete homework projects, play games, store tools, bikes and kayaks in this flexible space. Just a short walk to class, this home hits it out of the park! Tour it today!
