It could be an office, den, playroom or exercise space. You choose! Step into the LR, complete with a pointed, stone, gas fireplace w/keystone, a remote and is trimmed in a granite surround and wood mantel. There are turned steps here to the 2nd floor that go hand in hand with a similar set from the kitchen. The neutrally-painted, expansive DR will be great for entertaining. The dimmer switch will control the mood! It shows off new sconces, a casement back window, and a double side window. Check out the brand new ceiling fixture! In the kitchen you will find black and stainless appliances ( the fridge has an ice-maker), DW, microwave, double sink, new LVP floors, beveled granite c/tops, a CF and a tile backsplash. There's a breakfast nook just off the kitchen ,complete with a large window, a BI high top table with wine rack, stools and light fixture. The wood pantry and cabinets could easily be painted to give it your decorative spin. The steel door leading to the back yard boasts BI blinds. On the way to the lower level is an open pantry for extra foodstuffs. The basement area is finished for a rec room or playroom. It comes with a pellet stove, recessed lights, a lighted closet, a laundry room (W/D), and a powder room with vanity sink and oak mirror. Notice the exit steps to Bilco doors that lead to the private, fenced back yard. Summer living is easy in the back yard complete with a brick patio and cloth awning overhead w/lights put up for evening relaxation for friends & family gatherings. There is a pavered section too...and a spotlight regulated from a switch in one of the BR's. The Rubbermaid shed will be handy for storage. The one car, detached garage, w/siding to match the house, two windows and a white door sits at the end of the long, private driveway.

The light & bright, updated hall bath comes with grey and white tile walls and flooring, a tub/shower, a Kohler toilet and a white vanity sink flanked by extra formica counter space. The pine steps to the unfinished attic originate in the hallway. There is lots of room for storage here, and it has the potential to be finished. Part of the CA system can be found here. The linen closet is in the hallway too. The location on #738 puts it quite close to many schools, eateries, shops and a local baseball field. There are 3 large grocery stores just a short drive away...Giant, Shop-Rite and Acme.!
