Beneath the main house, a spacious two-plus-car garage provides ample parking and storage space, complemented by a detached one-car garage that opens the door to a variety of possibilities.
As you step inside, you'll be greeted by a home that is much larger than it appears from the exterior. The living room, centered around a fireplace, promises cozy evenings by the fire. A wood stove offers an opportunity to explore alternative heating options.
This home boasts three comfortable bedrooms, including a primary suite with vaulted ceilings and generous closet space. It's a canvas waiting for your personal touch to transform it into a serene retreat. There is even a loft space that would be the perfect teen hangout room!
A highlight of this property is the bonus room with cathedral ceilings and a gas fireplace, offering a versatile space that can be customized to your liking. Whether you envision a peaceful sanctuary, an entertainment hub, or a creative workspace, this room has endless potential.
While some cosmetic updates are needed to bring out the true potential of this home, it represents a unique chance to make it your own and build equity along the way. The bones are solid, the layout is promising and the square footage, ideal—now it's time to unleash your creativity and turn this house into your dream home.
