Property Description
Step into the warmth and character of this charming 1940s home, thoughtfully updated so you can enjoy the timeless details without the constant to-do list. From the moment you walk in, you'll notice the beautiful refinished hardwood floors and the inviting living room anchored by a cozy wood-burning fireplace, the perfect spot for movie nights or relaxing with a book. The updated kitchen makes everyday living easy, and the home's major improvements add real peace of mind, including a newer roof and a newer waterline throughout the house for low-maintenance ownership. With four good-sized bedrooms, there's flexibility for guests, a home office, or hobbies. Two spacious bedrooms are conveniently located on the main level, including the primary bedroom with two small walk-in closets for added storage and organization. Upstairs, you'll find two more generously sized bedrooms full of charm. You'll also love having two full bathrooms, both updated, so mornings run smoothly and guests feel right at home. Need extra space? The full basement offers the best of both worlds, half finished for additional living area and half ready for storage, a workshop, or seasonal organization. Out back, the sunroom is a standout feature, bright and peaceful, perfect for morning coffee, game nights, or winding down while overlooking the yard. And when spring and summer arrive, the garden brings the outdoor space to life with color and beauty. A detached two-car garage rounds out the package with great parking and even more storage. This home blends classic character, smart updates, and plenty of space in all the right places. Come see how effortlessly it fits real life while still feeling special.
