Tons of character in this very well taken care of 3 bedroom home with an over sized 2 car garage. The original hardwood flooring has been beautifully restored and, along with much of the original trim, adds plenty of charm. Some of the updates include new plumbing, electrical, cabinets, tile floor, sewer line, windows and roof! The large living room boasts a fireplace and leads to the formal dining room/flex space. Upstairs, find 3 large bedrooms (master has a walk-in) and a full bathroom. Head out the back door to find plenty of parking, a very well landscaped yard and an over sized 2 car garage. Located on a large corner lot in a great neighborhood near Merle Hay Rd.
