This inviting in-town home has been nearly completely renovated with only a few more touches to be brought by the new owner, blending fresh updates with classic comfort. Inside, you’ll find 3 bedrooms and a full bath, plus a bonus room that could serve as a 4th bedroom with a half-bath. An additional room with its own separate entrance is ideal for a small home business. The convenient attached garage is tucked away on the back of the house. Beautiful wood floors run through most of the rooms, adding warmth and character, while the kitchen features durable vinyl plank flooring and stainless steel appliances for easy maintenance. The renovations bring a modern touch to much of the home, while one bathroom retains its original character—offering opportunity for your own personal updates down the road. The new Weil-McLain boiler installed in February 2026 will bring peace of mind for many years to come. Bright living spaces, fresh and modern finishes, practical design, and versatile rooms make this home both move-in ready and full of potential. Situated on nearly an acre, the quiet side street offers privacy, yet you’ll enjoy easy access to local shops, dining, schools, and community amenities—all just a short walk or drive away.
