Overview

Description

A private retreat in the Dexter School system is where you need to be when you're tired of subdivision living! There is nothing as functional as a cape cod with 4 bedrooms, an ensuite, first floor laundry with wash sink and full walk-out basement to finish if you need even more space. Since 2019, they have done all the 'majors' for you: hooked up to natural gas; replaced furnace, water heater, windows, deck boards, roof replaced in 2021, EV charger installed in the garage - and more! Brand new carpeting and 'lifeproof' flooring make this even more move-in ready! There is no shortage of outdoor living space with the generous sized, covered front - swing included! - or the huge back deck.
