A recreation room features both a pool table and air hockey table, all included with the home. Most furnishings can remain, offering a move-in-ready opportunity, negotiable with the sale. Set back with a private wooded approach, the property features a long driveway leading to a circular entrance, providing both privacy and impressive curb appeal. Real Estate taxes for 2024 reflect an assessment based on a value of 760K. The furnace was updated in 2023. The lower-level storage area has future bath pre-plumbed.
