Hidden beneath the existing carpet upstairs, you'll discover more beautiful hardwood flooring, waiting to be unveiled and add even more character to these spaces if desired. The outdoor amenities truly set this property apart. A fenced-in yard provides privacy and security, creating your own personal retreat where everyone can play safely and pets can roam freely.
