They dont make them like they used to! This beautiful, immaculate home is full of character, charm and well taken care of! Relax with a cup of lemonade on the front porch swing. When you enter the front door; you immediately see what makes this home special: the built-ins around the fireplace, hardwood floors, beautiful trim work, plenty of light shining through newer windows, archways, etc. The kitchen is full of personality with an incorporated arched shelving alcove and granite countertops, the hallway follows suit with built-in drawers, and the bathroom is adorable! Huge master bedroom with walk-in closet. The back of the home is complete with a lovely deck where you can enjoy entertaining friends and family overlooking the gorgeous gardens and landscaping. The home is very well taken care of and it shows! The 2 car garage even has personality! Upper level and basement could be finished if more space was needed. Radon mitigation installed. Come and make this home!
