Newer HE HVAC (2021) and 18 newer vinyl windows (2022). Sparkling white kitchen offering SS appliances. Basement partially finished with a family/rec room and a possible 4th bedroom. Updated main bath (2021). Newer radon mitigation system (2022) and sump pump (2024). Fenced back yard for children and pets.
