About this home

The perfect house in the heart of Witchcraft Heights! Lovely mid-century raised ranch, with 3-4 Bedrooms and 1 ½ baths. Unusually large entrance hall leads to stairs to the main level with just the right amount of open plan between the LR, DR, and Kitchen, while keeping any kitchen mess out of sight. Large Living room with working fireplace and sunlight coming in from 3 sides! Updated kitchen with lots of counterspace of durable quartz and new appliances as of 2020. Sliding glass door leads from the kitchen to a large deck which spills onto a patio, perfect for outdoor entertaining! Separately fenced side and back yards adds further flexibility to the outdoor space. 3 Bedrooms and a full bath complete the main level. Downstairs is a large recently renovated family room/office, which could also be a 4th bedroom. Great storage room, laundry room, and an updated half bath & garage access rounds-out the ground floor. This is a turnkey home, beautifully maintained by the sellers!
