Overview

Description

This newly updated home has been thoughtfully renovated throughout, with major improvements completed in 2022 and beyond. The main level welcomes you with refinished hardwood floors, a brand-new kitchen, and an updated main bath. The refaced fireplace - fully relined with new tuck pointing - anchors the living room, which also features four replaced transom windows flooding the space with natural light. Every window and door has been addressed: all basement windows replaced, a new front screen door, updated porch with new windows and lighting, privacy window in the bath, and a replaced office closet window. A new roof, updated electrical, and new water softener give buyers confidence in the bones of the home. The finished basement adds valuable living space, complete with a half bath, baseboard heat, and fresh paint throughout - including the utility room with a brand new Hot Water Heater. Upstairs and down, the entire interior has been freshly painted. Step outside to a new privacy fence, a large new shed, and updated landscaping. The garage door has been redone and the exterior freshly repainted, completing a home that shows like new from top to bottom. Nothing to do but move in! Welcome home!
