Home Details

This charming home offers the perfect balance of comfort and functionality—cozy, sun-filled, and thoughtfully maintained. Every room, from the bright bedrooms to the welcoming living and dining areas, is bathed in natural light. Even the partially finished basement feels inviting, offering a pleasant work-from-home setup for over a decade. The fireplace adds warmth in the winter and stands as a year-round focal point. Both bathrooms have been updated, with the basement bath fully redone. Outside, the beautifully landscaped backyard is a true retreat. The fenced yard is perfect for pets and children, while the patio is ideal for grilling or unwinding with a book. Native, low-maintenance plantings attract butterflies, fireflies, and even the occasional toad. Very productive (and delicious) apple trees, elderberry bushes, black raspberry bushes, strawberries, and rhubarb, so one of your favorite things to do will be to eat home-grown, home-made pie in your backyard. Located in a vibrant, walkable neighborhood, you're close to parks, playgrounds, bike trails, and local gems like Snookie’s. Downtown is just 10 minutes away, with quick access to the interstate and airport. The street is quiet, friendly, and diverse—neighbors wave, dogs get petted, and community thrives. A truly special place to call​​‌​​​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌ home.
