An average homeowner stays in their home for 7 years. This home was built in 1960 and has had ONE owner that whole time- almost unheard of and a true testament to its greatness! The great layout of this 3 bedroom home would make it hard to leave and you can add to that the 2nd detached garage, two sheds, a huge corner lot and the incredible sunroom. Gorgeous original hardwood floors are exposed in all bedrooms and waiting under the carpet for you to let it out throughout most of the rest of the home. One full bathroom on the main floor and an additional full bath in the unfinished but nice basement. The bonus rooms in the basement have been used as additional bedrooms in the past as well and with a living room, family room and rec room below the living spaces leave little to be desired. Attached garage is heated and the detached garage has a heater although a little work would be required for it to be vented before using. All appliances stay and the home has more space than you'd imagine plus the storage capabilities are far beyond that of an average home. New roof in 2023.
