Agent Description

Beautiful pink, 4 sides masonry, 3 bedroom 2 bath house with a possible fourth bedroom or playroom as the double garage has been completely enclosed with the garage doors left in place and still functional in the event the new buyers wish to reinstall the garage. The front yard has an old humongous oak tree and another oak in the backyard with 2 additional oak trees which are smaller although good sized. Across the street is a wooded area where deer have appeared from time to time according to the sellers. In front of the garage is a carport for multiple cars. The trees give good shade to the house but the owners have added solar panels to the roof which adds an additional $350.00 per month payment but they can be removed if the new buyers do not want neither the panels or the payment. The welcoming front door leads into the living area with its dining area on the right and a hall on the left leading to the full secondary bathroom as well as the 3 bedrooms. The 2 remaining doors lead to the breakfast area as well as the kitchen and the door on the right leads from the formal dining area to the kitchen as well as to the wash room as well as the fourth room. There is also some storage area in the washroom.
