The kitchen may be compact, but it packs serious punch with abundant storage, beautiful Corian-style counters, and updated appliances including a five-burner gas range.The primary suite is huge, even with a king-size bed, and features three separate closet spaces plus a beautifully updated en suite with pebble tile flooring and sleek subway tile walls. The second bedroom is flooded with natural light, and the third bedroom makes a great flex space or home office. Gorgeous hardwood floors run throughout the entire home, no carpet anywhere. The charming hall bath features a claw foot tub/shower! --- You'll also love the dual pane windows, newer roof, newer central heat and air, and affordable REU utilities. This property gives you that country feeling without the commute or the high cost of fire insurance. --- 3D and video tours available. This one is even better in person.
