The cozy front porch makes the perfect spot to relax! Inside, you'll be met with gleaming hardwood flooring, arched doorways, crown molding, and beautiful trimwork throughout. The spacious living room showcases a wood-burning brick fireplace. Separate formal dining room. Beautifully remodeled kitchen boasts granite countertops, newer cabinetry, a large farmhouse sink, and all stainless steel appliances. Two large bedrooms share access to the updated full hall bath. Double doors lead to the den, which could function as a 3rd bedroom.
