Property details

About 5618 Merkle Ave

This is a lovely home on a well-maintained street which just needs some TLC. The hardwood floors throughout the home are solid and ready to be brought back to life. There are 2 bedrooms on the first floor and a third upstairs with a nice size bonus room off of it overlooking the front yard. One bedroom on the first floor has had a large entryway opened up off the kitchen years ago, so that it could be utilized as a dining room. The versatility of this space is a plus. And, the kitchen runs along the back of the house with lots of cabinet room, countertop space and a view to the partially fenced backyard. The microwave, range and refrigerator all remain with the home as do the window treatments. The upstairs bedroom has a large walk in closet, ceiling fan and and even a generous open space at the top of the steps. The basement stairs enter into the utility room section and to the right is a partially finished large room with an additional, unfinished room for extra storage. The one car garage is detached.
