Yard is completely fenced with several native bur oak trees providing loads of privacy in the summer. The enclosed porch greets you with large windows giving ample space to get ready to head out. French doors lead to the cozy living room with original hardwood floors, loads of natural light. Living room has breakfast bar window(adorable) that opens for entertaining. LR is wired for sound system(behind walls) with hook up for record player, subwoofer, multiple HDMIs, speakers & TV-giving a professional feel to your gaming, listening or watching. New wood burning fireplace with new brickwork. Blows hot air, heating most of the 1st floor. Kitchen boasts 5 1/2' of clean counter space and large breakfast bar allowing more prep space than most kitchens twice its size. Vintage metal cabinetry, darling breakfast nook w/original curved plaster and 60s Formica(you know you love this!). Both bedrooms have finished closet space & ceiling fans. Bathroom has closet space, new HE toilet, tub, sink, tile & laundry chute. Basement is partially finished. Windows are vintage glass block from an old McDonalds's in town. Work bench area, closet space & possible 3rd bedroom, office or workout room. 2 car tandem garage 36' deep. Work bench area, overhead storage. An attached south facing sunroom/shed or SHE-shed for seed starting or just hanging with friends. This is the perfect home for those looking for an alternative to renting or for perhaps a down-sizer who would love a beautiful outdoor space. Lots of love in this home by current owners. Come and see for yourself.
