Situated on a fully fenced lot, the home is surrounded by greenery, providing a natural, peaceful retreat. Enjoy the flower and vegetable gardens from the screened-in porch. There’s even a porch swing, inviting you to stay a while. Share the magnificent formal dining room with family and friends, then retreat to the living room to relax beside the cozy gas fireplace.
