Sale Pending
Units n/a

Charming bungalow in convenient location that has been lovingly cared for by the same family for decades. The sweet enclosed front porch leads to a spacious living room. There is a convenient mudroom off the recently paved driveway that leads to an updated eat-in kitchen with freshly painted cabinets, new counters and appliances. The first floor primary bedroom features a large walk-in closet and a mini spit unit and is adjacent to the full bath. The second floor has two large tandem bedrooms, a half bath and closet for storage. The basement is partially finished and has an additional half bath. Many mechanicals have been recently updated including the electric service, natural gas boiler and hot water heater (All in 2024 APO). The backyard is a summertime oasis with a refreshing concrete IG pool and fenced yard. The one car garage has an attached workshop as well as enclosed porch that is a great pool house. Meticulously maintained throughout, there is nothing to do but move in!
