Welcome to 87 Root Ave, Central Islip-where "move-in ready" actually means move in and relax PLUS save tons of money on your electric bills with owned Solar Panels! Renovated in 2017 plus recently painted interior and brand new flooring, this almost 2,000 sq. ft. home delivers modern style, flexible space, and serious curb appeal with updated vinyl siding and stacked-stone accents. Step inside to an open-concept kitchen featuring a large center island and plenty of room for a full-size kitchen table-seating for everyone. The space flows directly into the formal dining room, perfect for holidays, birthdays, or nights when takeout feels fancy. The first-floor private bedroom with a full bath is ideal for guests, in-laws, or anyone who values their own space. Upstairs, the primary suite with ensuite bath offers comfort and privacy, with four bedrooms total throughout the home. A recently finished basement with an egress window adds bonus living space (brand new boiler), and the fenced-in yard is ready for pets, play, or outdoor entertaining-all in a great mid-block location. In-ground sprinkler system makes watering and keeping your lawn green so much easier.
