Welcome to the kind of home everyone hopes to find!Set on an expansive, beautifully landscaped 1/3 of an acre lot in one of the area's most desirable and well-established neighborhoods. Known for its quiet streets, mature trees, and wonderful mix of long-time residents, retirees, and families, this is truly the neighborhood people aspire to call home, with schools, parks, and downtown amenities just a short walk away.The backyard is a rare highlight, offering exceptional space and privacy with no rear neighbors, mature trees, and beautiful perennial gardens creating a peaceful retreat. A fully fenced yard, completed in 2022, is perfect for children and pets, while convenient vehicle access along one side adds everyday practicality. The paved driveway and impressive extra-large carport-tall enough to accommodate a boat or recreational vehicle-further enhance the property's versatility. Inside, a welcoming mudroom with dedicated main-floor laundry and coat storage sets the tone for this practical yet inviting home. Large windows and french doors flood the living spaces with natural light, while the generous living room with its brick fireplace provides a warm and comfortable gathering space.The kitchen features solid wood cabinetry, and the bedrooms are comfortably sized, including a main-floor bedroom that allows for convenient one-level living if desired. A charming front porch with an updated railing, completed in 2019, offers the perfect place to relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. The basement is equally impressive with tall ceilings, a spacious family room with large windows that brighten the space, and plenty of room for hobbies, entertaining, or storage. Recent improvements add peace of mind, including a new propane furnace in 2022, new propane tanks in 2025, a carport roof replaced in 2021, an owned hot water tank installed in 2024, and a freshly painted interior. This solid, well-cared-for home is move-in ready and offers the perfect blend of comfort.
