It's ready to finish into additional living space if desired.Outside, enjoy a welcoming front porch with red concrete and metal railing, a pergola, cement pathways, and beautifully landscaped grass yard. The oversized one-car garage is paired with a covered side-entry carport plus an additional tall carport perfect for a small RV, boat, or trailer- for a total of 3 covered off street parking.Located just minutes from Cathedral Park, local shops, and neighborhood dining, this home is truly move-in ready-waiting for its next story to begin.
