Welcome to this charming updated one and half story home. This home has been completely updated and is amazing! It offers a lot of the original character from when it was built. The first floor offers a large size bedroom, full updated bathroom, good size living room and excellent size dining room. The ceilings are really high, the windows are big and tall, and the lighting is very bright. All of these things contribute to how large the rooms are and how much space the home really has to offer. When you go upstairs, you will see three more decent size bedrooms with an additional bathroom. Let's not forget the fully remodeled kitchen with all appliances included. Additionally, it is located near the bus route, an elementary school, a library, and a park. It's just minutes from downtown. This home is waiting for its new owner, and it is turn-key, so please make an appointment today.
