Property description
My grandfather used to say.."They don't make them like they used to!" This is perfection of old meets the new...Stately Hampden Heights all brick ranch with all the craftsmanship of yesteryear, updated in it's entirety with a fantastic kitchen with quartz countertop, tile back-splash, all stainless appliances and low profile microwave for the cooks who enjoy using a stock pot. Central air and cozy hot water heating. Updated bath with new counter-top, all generous sized bedrooms. Oh, and the lower level is a 10!...has it's own full bath and entrance, could be an entirely private alternate living space with dry bar, huge family room, brick FP, and tons of daylight, walk right out into the back yard. 1/4 acre lot with privacy in rear is "not to big, not to small, but just right". Quiet street just off the hustle and the bustle, but within minutes of all that you will need. All appliances remain, includes Stainless Refrigerator, Stainless Dishwasher, Stainless Range, low profile Microwave, Washer, Dryer......Just move right in......You will be hard pressed to find a better value in today's market............
