About the Home:

Sitting on over ½ acre of land, the 6 bedrooms, 4 baths, 3,792 square feet home was originally listed at $950,000. However, in this red-hot seller's market, in 3 short days, it sold for $169,000 over the original list price. 

The impressive home, built-in 1973 includes an oversized detached 2-car garage, hardwood floors throughout two levels, fresh paint, and a home gym. The charming home also has a second-story covered patio, along with an uncovered adjacent patio, complete with a ceiling fan and enough room to entertain or enjoy quality time with the family. Adjoining stairs lead to the enormous backyard with enough room for any activity imaginable. 

The open floor plan allows just the right amount of sunlight to brighten up the home. The hardwood floors and interior light gray paint with white trim give rooms an even larger look than the square footage suggests.
