The home features a classic open-air breezeway connecting to an oversized 4-car tandem garage with convenient front and rear garage doors. Mature trees and blooming perennials add to the property's natural charm. Inside, you'll find a generously sized living room anchored by a striking real stone wood-burning fireplace, perfect for cozy evenings. Hardwood mostly with wood laminate floors run throughout most of the main level, with a flexible den, office, or eat-in kitchen. The formal dining room features sliding doors to the backyard, and the kitchen is equipped with oak cabinetry, stainless steel appliances (including double oven, fridge, cooktop, and range hood), and a unique arched pass-through. There are 3 main-floor bedrooms, including a primary suite with its own full bath, plus a second full bath with double sinks. Yes, some of the finishes are retro, but the solid layout and size offer a great canvas for updates. The finished basement expands the living space with a giant Rec Room (L shaped)a 4th bedroom, a full bath, a laundry/storage area (It even looks like there used to be a beauty shop setup in the laundry room), and tons of closets both on the main and in the basement. City water and sewer. Roof and furnace age unknown.
