Can You Hear That? It's Potential Calling! With a little love and imagination, this spacious home could be the perfect canvas for your dreams. Overflowing with room to grow, it's ideal for a thriving household, remote work needs, or simply those who love to spread out. Step inside to a welcoming living room featuring a cozy wood-burning fireplace and an expansive front window that floods the space with natural light and frames views of the front yard. The living room seamlessly opens into a dining area and open-concept kitchen, making entertaining easy and everyday living comfortable. Just off the kitchen, a sliding glass door leads to the elevated deck-a peaceful perch to enjoy morning coffee while soaking in distant views or to unwind after a long day. The main level offers two comfortable bedrooms and an updated full bath. Upstairs, a full dormer adds generous space for two large bedrooms and a half bath-with ample room to convert it into a full bath. Laminate flooring and skylights upstairs add warmth and light throughout. The walk-out lower level features two spacious areas, perfect for a home office, guest room, or media space. One side provides direct access to the fenced-in backyard, ideal for pets, play, or private gatherings. Additional highlights include all-new windows, updated features, and a fantastic location just minutes from Beaver Pond, a serene spot to connect with nature.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
