About this home
There's a lot more to this 3BR, 2BA Carteret ranch than meets the eye! Situated on a corner lot, 73 George Street offers great indoor and outdoor space, a fully finished basement and a backyard made for summer. Inside, you'll find hardwood floors, an updated kitchen with granite counters, tiled backsplash, onyx sink, gas cooktop, wall oven and custom 24 inch ceramic tile flooring, plus an updated full bath on the main level. Downstairs, the fully finished basement takes this home to another level with a second full kitchen featuring an oven and dishwasher, bonus rooms, laundry room and a spacious second full bath with shower stall- plenty of extra space to work with! Out back is where this home really shines. An awesome Florida room with gorgeous stone flooring and its own A/C opens through French doors to a fenced, oasis-like backyard. Enjoy the newer above-ground pool, partially set into the yard and surrounded by stone, concrete patio, manicured lawn with sprinkler system and large shed/workbench area. Add in a long blacktop driveway, pull-down attic storage, approximately 6-year HVAC, approximately 5-year hot water heater and approximately 2-year pool with newer filter system. All this just 1.5 blocks from Minue School and about a block from the junior high/high school bus stop. Plenty of space, great updates and a backyard ready to enjoy! 73 George Street is one you'll want to see!
