The living room features luxury vinyl plank flooring, while the eat-in kitchen includes ample cabinetry and pantry storage, along w/a suite of appliances. Two bedrooms and a full bath on the first floor provide the convenience of ranch-style living, with the second floor offering added flexibility w/the home's third bedroom and a bonus area ideal for a home office, reading nook or playroom, plus generous eave storage. Refreshed in 2026 w/new waterproof luxury vinyl plank flooring and fresh paint, this level features three closets and is ready to fit a variety of needs.

Major mechanical updates include a sump pump (2025), furnace w/humidifier (4/2024) and central air (4/2024) as well as a 100-amp electrical service. Outside, you'll appreciate the curb appeal of the brick front façade, vinyl siding and black shutters that add a classic touch to the home's exterior, along w/an architectural tear-off roof and updated vinyl windows. Situated on a corner lot on a quiet side street, the fully fenced backyard, mature landscaping, additional parking pad and detached garage create a private outdoor retreat, w/a cozy gated courtyard tucked between the home and garage perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Just a block from the Rails to Trails bike path, and minutes from a variety of restaurants and everyday amenities, this location offers the best of both worlds.
