You'll immediately be taken by the striking curb appeal of this home, from the solar-powered lighting in the Little Free Library out front, to the neatly groomed landscaping, around to the charming patio with string lights, and around back to the freshly painted and improved deck overlooking a large flat and fenced yard--the outdoor spaces will delight. Inside, you'll find all your boxes checked with hardwood floors, recessed lights, lots of new (2019/2021) stainless steel appliances, a charming living room with built-in bookcases flanking a wood-burning fireplace, an upper level loft with access to the back yard, and a slew of money saving, environmentally friendly upgrades as well. The gas furnace and A/C were replaced in 2019 and that system includes a UV light filtration air purifier. The roof was installed in 2019 and at that time, insulation was added resulting in nearly immediate money savings on utility bills. This sun-powered home has a $20,000, net-metered, 4kW solar panel system with WiFi monitoring. It has saved our clients--and the environment--a bundle! Do you have an electric car?
