Welcome to this charming home located in the heart of the Village of Maine. As you approach, you're greeted by the appeal of nearly an acre lot, situated on a corner for open views of the countryside from your updated vinyl windows. The property boasts a detached garage built in 2003 with vinyl siding & gutters, providing ample space for parking and storage with 9 foot tall overhead insulated doors, concrete floor, separate electrical panel, and attic storage area! The garage interior is insulated and finished too! The back yard has an immense amount of space to play fetch with your pets and there is a small fenced area around a dog kennel which is included! The attached garage is 23 feet deep x 21 feet wide with a pit to make oil changing a breeze! The finished mudroom off the garage is 15x8 and large enough to allow a space for main floor laundry or many cubbies! The large deck is just off the back mudroom door and connects to the primary bedroom. The mid century modern flair is displayed in the kitchen and dining area.,This space is a functional delight, featuring four lazy Susans, updated refrigerator, pull-out drawers under the cooktop for convenient storage and a built-in desk/hutch! A very spacious living room is easily seen for true entertaining space from the kitchen and dining! The desirable open concept many buyers look for is found here! The owner believes there is hardwood floor under the carpet of this home and is waiting to be revealed and admired. A cedar closet in the first bedroom adds a touch of natural elegance, while linen closets in the hallway offer practical storage solutions. A unique cabinet mechanism operates by pulling on the right cabinet door and unlatching the left door to access them. The hallway reveals two linen closets and two door closets, along with a cleverly concealed laundry chute in a cabinet on the right. The full bathroom is situated conveniently between all four bedrooms on the main floor. Along the second bedroom wall an addition was put on to add in the closet and primary suite! The third bedroom has hardwood floors under the carpet per the owner. All bedrooms feature closets with lights for added convenience. The addition, which was added on approximately 17 years ago has a sanctuary primary suite. It is complete with a gas fireplace adorned with stone, a walk-in closet with a pocket door, and access to the attic. A patio door leads to the deck, perfect for outdoor relaxation and entertaining. Downstairs, the basement offers additional living space, including a lower level family room, ideal for gatherings and recreation. A pool table could easily fit in the space and owner believes there is an outlet in the ceiling tile where a hanging pool table light could be plugged into. A large unfinished room with walk-out lower level provides an empty canvas for your next man cave! An unfinished storage closet provides ample room for organizing belongings. A laundry area with toilet and sink offer the plumbing to use right off the rec room space. While the home is brimming with potential, it's worth noting that some maintenance is required. Inquire for more details. A 50-gallon electric water heater was newly installed in March 2018! The Carrier brand furnace is a 2 stage for efficiency. 200 amp electrical! Overall, this home offers a blend of classic charm and modern convenience, waiting for new owners to make it their own. According to the Village of Maine, the property is able to be residentially used a home, as it has been for years, but has a commercial zoning to allow for a business to use the space or work at this location. Great potential to purchase this property!
