Sitting atop a hill in an historic part of town, this is about as centrally located as it gets. The classic home sits on a corner lot at 16th St and Jefferson. This 3 bedroom, 3 bath beauty has received recent updates that will make you say "yes" right away. New wall finishes and trim caulk/paint were completed in the Living Room, Dining Room and all bedrooms. The Master Bedroom floor was freshened up with a light staining. New carpet was added in the Family Room. This home mixes original design with modern improvements. High ceilings on the first floor and hardwood floors and accents throughout contrast with updated backsplash and stainless appliances in the Kitchen. A handicap accessible bathroom was added to the first level, adding convenience. The Family Room enjoys a degree of privacy with glass block windows on two sides. An enclosed porch on the main level is where laundry was relocated, meaning no more trips to the basement! A deck on the back provides shaded enjoyment outside.
