Exceptionally well cared for, this one-owner, custom-built all-brick home offers space, quality, and timeless design in the heart of Breese. Built in 1996, the home features 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms with an inviting open floor plan ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is highlighted by beautiful Markus cabinetry, a large pantry, and excellent storage throughout. Just off the main living area, enjoy a screened-in porch overlooking a spacious lot filled with mature trees—perfect for relaxing or hosting guests. There is a large back yard with access form the alley - a great place for a detached shed to be built.
