Property Description

Discover this beautifully maintained 1-story home offering 3 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, and a finished attic that represents the largest bedroom. Once inside, you'll find charming wood-paned windows, gleaming hardwood floors, and a cozy wood-burning fireplace -- perfect for quiet evenings. The home also features a large formal dining room, unique built-ins including a hallway linen closet and a first-floor laundry chute, and ample storage space. At the buyer's discretion, Williams and Sons antique grand concert upright piano, in full working condition, stays with the home. Outside, your own private oasis awaits: a large, park-like yard features red raspberries and cherry trees. The attached 2-car garage adds convenience, while recent updates provide total peace of mind - new roof (2024), new furnace and AC (2019), and new sewer line to the street (2011). This is more than a house - it’s a place to put down roots and raise a family on a quiet street with minimal traffic. Don’t let it slip away.
