Property Description
You'll love this adorable bungalow in the woods! It's like living in the forest with beautiful views of trees from every window, yet so close to MIU/MSAE, Everybody's grocery store, and other amenities. The winding steps take you up the hill and through the covered gate to your little private oasis. The fully screened-in porch is a great place to enjoy your morning coffee, read or draw, or when you want to enjoy sleeping in the fresh air, climb up to the loft big enough for a queen sized mattress. Out back is a private back yard with a big wood deck and a pergola with cozy bench underneath to relax under the trees. This home features two bedrooms and one full bath, an open kitchen and dining area, and a full basement with a laundry room and other usable rooms. The big bedroom has been completely renovated with new vinyl plank flooring and two good-sized closets. The living room, dining room, 2nd bedroom, and hallway all have lovely hardwood flooring. That 2nd bedroom has sliding glass doors that open up to the back deck. In the kitchen you have solid maple cabinets and another door that leads out to the back deck. The metal roof and good quality newer windows throughout the house are nice features that give you peace of mind. This would make a sweet place to call Home or a great rental property!
