A great family home, with 4 spacious bedrooms upstairs, including a master suite.   All bedrooms feature large closets, 2 large windows for great light and cross-ventilation, and new high quality carpet.  Main floor entertainment spaces include a formal living room, a formal dining room, an eat-in kitchen featuring KraftMaid maple cabinetry, and a family room open to the kitchen, all with engineered cherry flooring.  Access the spacious deck from either the kitchen or family room to enjoy the private wooded backyard.  A large garage, and full, dry, unfinished basement round out the amenities.

Come and see the newest 40-year-old house in town!  Quality updates throughout, with brand new doors, floors, bathrooms, and white wood interior trim.  Freshly painted in neutral colors, deck pressure-washed and resealed.  Less recent updates include vinyl tilt-in double hung windows throughout, vinyl siding, privacy fence, covered gutters, and widened driveway.  Top-of-the-line furnace is less than 4 years old, and the A/C is only 6 years old.  Even the handy yard shed is recently re-roofed and painted.
