Property Description
Welcome home to a place that instantly feels peaceful, cared for, and genuinely inviting. Tucked in one of Salem's most loved neighborhoods, this fully renewed home offers the comfort buyers hope for when searching for "the one." Nearly every inch has been updated-new flooring, new subfloor and joists, new drywall, new PEX plumbing, and a beautifully refreshed bathroom. It's the kind of work you can feel confident in the moment you step inside. The layout features over 1,300 sq. ft. with the flexibility to easily create a third bedroom if needed. A warm gas log fireplace anchors the living room, creating the perfect spot to gather on quiet evenings or welcome guests. Brand-new, top-end Maytag appliances-including refrigerator, oven, microwave, washer, and dryer-stay with the home, making move-in truly effortless. Helitech completed water channeling (lifetime warranty), two sump pumps, and a vapor barrier this year, giving buyers peace of mind for years to come. The 2012 HVAC and water heater add to the reliability of the home's systems. Outside, enjoy an attached garage plus a huge 28 21 detached garage with its own paved drive-ideal for hobbies, storage, or additional parking. One my favorite features is the natural gas grill on the concrete pad. The neighborhood is known for its quiet streets, great neighbors, and that "hidden gem" feel buyers rarely find. If you've been waiting for a place that feels fresh, solid, and instantly like home, this is it.
