Classic brick Cape Cod in sought after Lincoln School district! The cozy living room w/fireplace welcomes you in to this comfortable home. Step into the well planned living/entertaining area which includes a nice-size dining room and attractive & functional kitchen, complete with custom Amish cabinets.

The main floor also offers 2 bedrooms (one currently serving as a home office) and a full updated bathroom with new tub and shower walls. The second floor provides 2 more bedrooms and a full bath. You will love the possibilities the basement offers! Complete the partially finished area and there's still lots of room for storage or added flex space. Hardwood floors run through-out the house.
