Enclosed back porches for both units provide a place for summer seating, entertaining, and space for storage. Basement is wide open, easy for workspace, extra storage or duplex down. 2023 waterproofing includes battery backup and drain tiles. Laundry hookup in place. Radiant heat. 100AMP electric with new pipe, wire, panel 2008. 2C garage 2004. Private, fenced yard with garden beds, perennials, and plenty of space to play and entertain.
