This charming home, lovingly cared for by the same owners for nearly 50 years, is now ready for a new chapter. From the inviting front porch to the spacious foyer, the home immediately exudes warmth and character. The main floor is filled with natural light, highlighting the beautiful red oak flooring throughout main level. Arched entries add a touch of elegance, and the kitchen has been updated with all new appliances, offering both style and function. The eat-in kitchen opens to a lovely 4-season porch, which also serves as a practical mudroom, perfect for transitioning between indoor and outdoor spaces. Upstairs, the home features three generously sized bedrooms, with a fourth located on the upper level that offers great potential for adding an additional closet or bathroom. The basement is an excellent bonus with an oversized laundry room offering abundant storage space, while the family room features new carpeting, making it a cozy area for relaxation. Outside, the large oversized deck and lush green space provide plenty of room for outdoor activities. The detached two-car garage offers additional storage space, making this home as practical as it is charming. With its thoughtful layout, timeless appeal, and room for personal touches, this property is truly a place to call home.
