Renovated 3 Bedroom, 2 Bath home full of character and charm! Step onto the inviting full-width front porch - the perfect spot for rocking chairs and quiet evenings. Inside, this single-level home immediately showcases the thoughtful blend of preserved character and modern updates. Spacious rooms and tall ceilings in the living area create an open, airy feel while still offering comfortable separation between spaces. The layout offers a natural split-bedroom feel, with one bedroom positioned toward the front of the home and the additional bedrooms tucked further back for added privacy. The kitchen and dining area combine into one generous gathering space - ideal for entertaining. The oversized kitchen island invites everyone to pull up a chair, because we all know the kitchen is where guests love to gather. Granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and stylish finishes throughout elevate the home's appeal. Special touches - including a sliding barn door accent - add personality and warmth. An exterior entrance partial basement, with a dry seal system is perfect for extra storage. One of the standout features is the level lot. The backyard provides plenty of space for outdoor games, gardening, or simply relaxing and enjoying the outdoors.
