The detached garage and shed offer excellent storage, workshop potential, or hobby space. Additional updates include a 7-year-old roof, seamless gutters with gutter guards, newer windows, and attic insulation added approximately 10 years ago. The furnace and AC are 10 years old and have been professionally serviced every six months. A water softener is also included and owned. With its durable brick exterior, vintage charm, modern conveniences, and move-in-ready condition, this home is a rare find with room to grow.
