The finished lower level has rec and game areas with a wall full of handy built-in storage, an exercise room, the 5th bedroom and a workroom all providing even more square footage to the home.The huge 1.5+ attached garage houses a work bench and can easily accomodate all of those bikes, trikes, mowers and more. The entire home has recently been freshly painted and there is new carpeting, recessed lighting and hardwood floors throughout. An exceptional, expanded home in a most sought-after in-town location--you will LOVE it!!!!
