Situated on a large corner lot, it features a single-level layout with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a welcoming living room with a wood-burning stove, and a family room with a wood fireplace that opens directly to the patio. Original wood flooring adds warmth to the dining room, living room, & bedrooms. The colorful kitchen pairs concrete countertops with Mexican tile backsplash for a festive touch.
