You'll find an eat-in kitchen with granite countertops, an extra-deep pantry with pull-out drawers, a formal dining room, family room, and living room. The layout creates plenty of space for everyday living and entertaining. A wood stove in the dining area adds warmth and rustic charm. The unfinished basement provides excellent storage and future expansion potential. Recent updates include Pella replacement windows, new patio door, back deck upgraded, and new carpet in the bedrooms.
