About this home

They don't build them like this anymore... but they sure can update them! This charming 1947 home blends timeless character with modern touches, offering 3 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms and 2 bonus rooms that can easily serve as bedrooms, all the space you could want- additional downstairs space ready for your imagination! Fresh interior paint and new carpet create a move-in ready feel, while the updated all-white kitchen brings a bright and inviting space to prepare meals and gather with loved ones. A separate dining room adds the perfect setting for holiday dinners, game nights, or Sunday brunches that turn into lasting memories. Whether you're a first-time buyer looking for a place to call your own, downsizing without sacrificing comfort, or simply searching for a home with personality and updates already completed, this one checks all the boxes. Classic charm, thoughtful upgrades, and room to make new memories-what more could you ask for? The only question left is... when would you like to come take a look? Come turn the key.
