Description

.First impressions are always the best and this lovely 4 bedroom, 2 bath brick rancher will not disappoint This is a one family home that was treated with tender loving care and heirs are saying let's get this home sold! The owner was a well-known upholsterer in town who, with his wife brought up 3 lovely daughters here. Their home was the "go to" house for all the kids in the neighborhood and you can feel the happiness shared there! If steps are an issue, the main level offers all of your needs including a laundry hookup in the master bedroom, kitchen with a breakfast bar and sunny breakfast area, and an amazing living room with a fireplace and a bank of front windows allowing the light to filter in and all kept cool by central air in the summer and gas baseboard heat in the winter along with 2 wood burning fire places . Walking through the sunny rooms, you will notice the openness of the flooplan and the ample storage. The fourth bedroom was considered by the family as the library and boasts of a multitude of builtin bookshelves and a desk--a great spot for working from home or home schooling, or obviously, the fourth bedroom. There is an extra large lower level, family room with a woodburning fireplace and this is where the kids could hang out while dad had his separate upholstery workshop there as well which includes a lot of shelving for storage. . If so desired, there is so much space in the lower level which includes a separate exterior entry, that you could create a very pleasant mother in law apt or rental to offset your mortgage. Along with the impressive curb appeal, the owners added an oversize 3 car carport--not your average kind, but very well built with extra storage as well--in fact, you could consider enclosing it to a full garage if desired. The roof was recently replaced with 30 year architectural shingles, and something you never see, there are custom awning covers for all of the flower beds throughout the level yard lovingly made by the owner. It makes one smile to think that he took such care! There are updates that can be made, the girls have memories of there being patterned hardwood floors under the carpeting and with some painting, etc.. it can be easily refreshed, but if you are looking for a substantial, well built, well maintained home in a lovely neighborhood, this is definietly one to take into consideration.
