Flip of a switch gets the bedroom gas fireplace up and going for that soul inviting feel. Laundry/Utility Room with a sink and extra closets for storage round out the top floor. Updated mechanicals, electrical and plumbing systems, HVAC, and more. New roof recently added and solar panels recently added as well, so plan on some savings there to offset your mortgage!

This incredibly well maintained home is move-in ready and sellers can close very quickly. They loved living here and made many memories, but now it's your turn to do the same. Easy to show and ready to go!
