Inside, the open concept home offers a great space to relax and entertain and has been updated with laminate floors, fresh paint, new baseboard, windows and trim throughout. The bathroom was completely updated in 2023 with a large walk-in shower and plenty of storage for all your hygiene and beauty needs. The bedrooms offer plenty of space and large closets. Basement was completely remodeled in the last year with spray foam Eco-insulation, new drywall and carpet following a repair of the outdoor weeping tile in 2020, resulting in a completely dry basement. Part of the basement remains unfinished but provides plenty of space for storage or a workshop. Water heater is owned and replaced in 2020, new washer and dryer in 2019 in an updated laundry room, and outdoor soffits and eavestrough were replaced in 2022 on both the home and garage. The garage provides more space for storage, parking and wonderful character in the yard.
