About 72462 Wilkinson St

The cottage style home sits pretty on a little over a 1/2 acre. Retreat from the noise with plenty of room to roam outside and to build the workshop or garage of your dreams! You will love the big windows that will let you view the expansive lawns and have light galore! New electric panel with new breakers and a whole home surge protector! The interior has a pleasing color palette. No carpet. Stainless steel appliances in the kitchen as well a farm sink. There are soft close cabinets and drawers. A barn door leads into the den or bonus area that has a wood burning fireplace. A laundry room is off of that room and a side door that leads outside to the covered attached carport. The roof is 2021! Big front windows look out to a sprawling yard and the rear is bordered with blooming pink Azaleas in season. No HOA makes this home even more ideal!
