**HIGHEST AND BEST BY SUNDAY, 5/11, AT 5:00 PM. NO ESCALATION RIDERS OR LOVE LETTERS WILL BE ACCEPTED.** DON'T LET THIS ONE GET AWAY! For over 55 years, this Boulder Hill beauty has been lovingly maintained by its original owner/builder - and it shows! You simply WILL NOT find a better maintained home in all of Boulder Hill! Recent updates include: Brand new carpet, fresh interior paint and some new light fixtures (2025); Full driveway replacement, 2 newer high efficiency furnaces with thermostats, newer water heater, refrigerator, oven that's never been used, and microwave (2024); Newer A/C (2023) that's only been used a handful of times; Newer roof, gutters with leaf filters, and newer garage door opener (2020); Fresh exterior paint (2020) - not to mention all the numerous updates/upgrades made over the years. This home lives large. It has a great flow and amenities not normally found in this price point. Two full baths. Solid core doors. Ceiling fans in every bedroom. NO STAIRS! The list goes on. It has loads of character, and the closet/storage space throughout the home is amazing. The eat-in kitchen boasts quality maple cabinets, corian counter tops and a maintenance free tile floor. It flows easily into the other living spaces. The huge family room addition will be your favorite place to relax. It has a gas start fireplace for cozy nights and a wet bar for easy entertaining. A sliding glass door leads you to the expansive brick paver patio with gas line for a grill (grill stays with the home) so you can bring the party outdoors. The fully fenced yard is a gardener's dream. All the perennial gardens provide splashes of color year round. The shed was built "right. It sits on a concrete slab and is wired for electricity. The lawn mower and snow blower can stay with the home as our gift to you! Located just 3 blocks from the Civic Center Aquatic Park and right off the Route 34 corridor, this home gives you the best of both worlds - full access to modern conveniences AND a peaceful retreat where you can unwind and recharge. And did we mention that it's service by the highly regarded Oswego School District 308? Since it's unincorporated Montgomery (with city water and sewer), you have lower taxes and there are no monthly or annual assessments. Check the comps and do the math. This one's a no brainer. Welcome home!
