Description

This is a beautiful, move-in ready home that features extensive updates inside and outside, including brand new furnace and central air! From the moment you walk into the home, you'll know that it is well-cared for and will see many attractive design details. The kitchen has been extensively remodeled, including opening up a wall to provide more space for meal preparation. You'll find new flooring, new cabinets, new counters, new appliances, new sink and fixtures. Just off of the kitchen is the dining area with plenty of room for casual or formal dining. A slider door leads to the recently expanded deck and large, fenced back yard. Don't miss the built-in shelves that were added for cook books and displaying decorative items. The light-filled living room is comfortable and inviting accented by the hardwood floors. There are three good-sized bedrooms also with hardwood floors and closets with shelves and organizers. The updated full bath completes the main floor.

Supplements: You'll be pleasantly surprised when you walk down to the basement where there is an expansive family room with newer carpet and plenty of room for gathering to watch your favorite teams, movies or programs. There's also an additional finished room for exercise or crafts or playtime, half-bath, laundry room with work surface and cabinets and storage/utility room. The exterior of the home has also been updated front and back with new deck, deck and porch rails, privacy fence with gate, new cement pad and walkway and beautifully landscaped yard. There's even a refurbished shed. PLUS replacement windows, new doors, new exterior lighting, and so much more. Great location in Portage Schools near shopping, dining, services, schools, I-94, and local companies. It's a great neighborhood for walking and Lexington Green Park nearby. This home is not to be missed!
