Beautifully and thoughtfully renovated home. Featuring a refurbished kitchen with the original natural maple cabinets brought back to life plus new, modern attributes including quartz countertops, added cabinetry and a large pass-through into the dining room. A completely updated bathroom with cast iron tub. Refinished hardwood floors and refurbished natural woodwork help to complete this home. Great opportunity to add space and build equity with a full staircase leading to an unfinished large expansion attic. Updated items include furnace, central air, water heater, washer & dryer, kitchen appliances, garage door and opener. The icing on the cake is a lovingly restored yard ready to be enjoyed for the rest of the summer.
