Located along a tree-lined street near picturesque parks. The choice is yours! This home is ready to move in, allowing you to add personal touches over time or bring your contractor to envision the upgrades that will transform it into your dream home.

The carpeted sunroom, filled with windows, flows effortlessly into the spacious dining and living areas. A vestibule and hallway provide access to both the living room entrance and the kitchen. There are three outdoor spaces: a charming front porch with ample seating, French doors from the living room that open onto a terrace enclosed by a wrought-iron fence, and a back door from the kitchen that leads to a covered deck. The living and dining rooms are generously sized. The upper level has been reconfigured to combine two bedrooms into an ensuite. The remaining two bedrooms are spacious and share a full bathroom. Additional amenities include a basement with a full bathroom and a separate laundry room equipped with a washer, dryer, double sink, and storage space. The attached garage features an electronic door that leads to a driveway with parking for two vehicles. There is also a rear door that opens to an additional covered storage area, providing an exit to the backyard. Be delighted by the curb appeal and charm of this home, now at a newly reduced price.
