Property Description

This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers a fantastic opportunity for a buyer looking to add value while enjoying the confidence of major recent improvements. Featuring a fully fenced yard, detached garage, and a full unfinished basement, this home provides a strong foundation-both literally and figuratively-for customization and future growth. Significant updates have been completed (March 2026), including professionally secured basement foundation walls with carbon fiber straps and a fully waterproofed basement-both backed by a lifetime transferable warranty. These major investments provide long-term peace of mind and directly contribute to the home's updated price, reflecting the added value and protection for future homeowners. Additional updates include a new roof and gutters (2020), new dryer (2021), and a Nest thermostat. The layout offers comfortable living space with great potential both inside and out. The seller is also offering a 14-month home warranty for added reassurance. With key structural improvements already completed and solid bones throughout, this home is ideal for buyers ready to personalize a space while benefiting from important upgrades already in place.
