What's special

New above ground pool

Welcome to this beautiful 3 bedroom, 2.5-bathroom single family home on a spacious 0.58-acre lot. Gutted in 2004 for electrical/cosmetic updates, the property features modern 200-amp electrical service and style throughout. Plenty of driveway space as well (4+) as well as two additional parking spaces in the garage. Recent upgrades include a new installed roof in 2025, a new water heater (December 2025), and a detached garage built in 2017. The backyard was enhanced in 2025 with a new above ground pool and hot tub (installed in August 2025), which will be perfect for summer entertainment and relaxation. This move-in-ready home offers comfortable living space yet potential to fit new buyer's needs. Sellers are motivated to sell. Quick closing preferred.
