Description

Opportunity awaits with this well-maintained 1-story home and 1786 square feet of garage space on a spacious half-acre corner lot. The main level offers two bedrooms, a 3/4 bath, a generous living room with dining area and a kitchen featuring built-in appliances. The full basement provides excellent potential for future expansion with a laundry area and a ¾ bath already in place. Finish the lower level to create additional living space, hobby area or home office to fit your needs. Outside, you'll appreciate the convenience of the attached 1-stall garage, along with an impressive 30' x 50' detached garage with three overhead doors providing abundant space for vehicles, storage or workshop needs. Additional features include an updated electrical breaker panel, new Feldco windows installed throughout the home in 2024 (excluding the bay window), and a sewer backup system for added peace of mind. Property consists of two parcels. Taxes, assessed value and lot dimensions represent both parcels combined. The wine bottle chandelier and kitchen valance are excluded. Washer and dryer are negotiable.
