About this home
Charm, character, and move-in-ready comfort. This 2-bedroom home has it all! Gleaming hardwood floors in the living room and 2 bedrooms...bonus feature in one bedroom, a lovely red cedar closet and carpet in the hallway. The updated bath (refreshed by Midwest Bath, with the rest beautifully finished by the seller) adds a modern touch, while the kitchen shines with Formica countertops, a stainless steel refrigerator, and a gas stove.
You can unwind in the bonus four-season porch/mudroom off the back, the perfect spot for morning coffee or evening relaxing. Nearly all windows have been replaced (just two original windows remain in back), and major big-ticket items are already done for you: roof & gutters replaced just 3 years ago, a new A/C unit, copper pipes updated to PVC in 2020, and a proactively waterproofed basement (no prior issues, just peace of mind). Did you get water in your basement the first week of July 2026, cause this house did not even with 9 inches of rain.
Step outside to a large backyard with endless possibilities. You have room to entertain, have a garden, or simply relax, plus a handy 8x10 shed for extra storage or your next project space.
This lovingly maintained home also comes with a 1-year First American Eagle Premier Home Warranty for added peace of mind. Don't miss your chance. Schedule your tour today!...
