Property Description

Welcome to this charming, well-cared-for home! This 2-bedroom gem features beautiful hardwood floors, with one bedroom boasting a red cedar closet with a lifetime guarantee. The full bathroom has been partially updated by Midwest Bath and will be completed prior to closing, unless you'd prefer to finish it yourself. The inviting living room also has hardwood floors, while the hallway is carpeted for comfort. The kitchen has been updated with Formica countertops, stainless steel refrigerator, and a gas stove. Nearly all windows have been replaced (only two back windows remain original). Major updates have already been taken care of for you; roof & gutters replaced just 3 years ago; new A/C unit; copper water pipes replaced with PVC in 2020 & basement waterproofed (no prior water issues just being proactive). Enjoy the bonus four-season porch/mudroom off the back, and step outside to a large backyard with endless possibilities, perfect for entertaining, gardening, or relaxing. This adorable home has been lovingly maintained and is move-in ready. Don't miss your chance to make it yours! Schedule your tour today!
