Property Description

Loved by the same family for 70 years! Yes, you read that right. This home has been incredibly cared for and updated along the way. A welcoming porch invites you to stop and take a seat; you'll hear the school bells from nearby Northeast Middle School. The main floor has a powder room addition and a beautiful kitchen with stainless steel appliances, double sink, garbage disposal, gas cooking and pantry. A mud room inside the back door is perfect to drop your shoes, back packs or possibly a main floor laundry location. The living and dining room are nice size. Upstairs is an updated bath with walk in shower and three bedrooms. An unfinished attic provides plenty of storage. And yes, you have your own garage with opener. Come and see and make it your home for many years, too.
