Renovations are finally complete for this big house sitting on a big lot! Brand new siding (completed April 2024), roof, gutters & more. There's been work done on flooring (now mostly hardwood floors), bathrooms, windows - too much to list here. Spread your generations over the 5 bedrooms and 2100+ sq. ft. of above-ground living space. Feel the ease of having 2 full bathrooms to share, two living rooms to share, and a bedroom for everyone! And if you decide to use the option, you can even close the door between living rooms to create a separate living area for the kids, grandparent or turn it into potential rental income, since 2 ground-floor bedrooms are in this part of the home. The other 3 bedrooms are upstairs. The main bedroom upstairs includes 5 different doors to storage areas, a built-in desk, built-in cabinets and even a built-in 10-drawer dresser. And don't overlook the private nook down the little hill in the back yard. Surrounded by neighboring fencing on 3 sides, and having a low canopy of tree branches, works to create a wonderfully cozy spot. Be sure to check it when you view the home.
