Walk up to the Farmer's Market on Saturday mornings or stroll on over to Eastgate Park. The accesability here just can't be beat.

Whatever the choice, the elongated yard overlooking the creek offers spaces for everyone. Once inside, you get to choose where you want to spend your time. The front living room or sitting room is tucked away for privacy, enjoy the warm fire around the fireplace, or enjoy the hang out in the expansive bonus room to watch your favorite shows. Want to host holiday meals or game night with friends? The private dining room right off the kitchen is a perfection location for just that. Speaking of kitchen, the newly painted cabinets, coupled with the new kitchen floor bring a brightness to the homes interior. The updated primary bathroom and complete downstairs renovation downstairs, coupled with the freshly painted exterior give this home an updated feel white still keeping the split level charm.
