Listing broker remarks

This home preserves the original character of an early 20th century Colonial while adding modern conveniences, including central heat and A/C, radiant heat for cozy winters, updated electrical, insulation throughout, new water main and foundation wall and EV readiness. It's steps away from the newly built Cunniff elementary school. The first floor seamlessly connects the contemporary kitchen with sun-filled living and dining areas. The second floor offers three bedrooms and a bathroom, with the primary bedroom positioned to easily extend over the existing first-floor build-out, creating an opportunity for spacious walk-in closet and private primary bathroom. Original details remain throughout, including the inviting living room and dining room. Outside, a newly designed driveway provides 3 parking spaces alongside a new retaining wall. The sport court can easily become a patio, lawn, or play area.— Gibson Sotheby's International Realty
