Don't miss this spacious and well maintained 6 bedroom, 2 full bathroom home located in the highly desirable Unit 5 School District, offering plenty of room to spread out and make it your own.

In 2025, the power meter and main lines were replaced, the basement bathroom was remodeled, and a basketball hoop was added. Most recently in 2026, the east basement bedroom was remodeled and new carpet was installed throughout the basement. You will also love the added conveniences like a utility sink in the laundry room, a large backyard perfect for entertaining or relaxing, and a radon mitigation system already in place, plus all appliances stay.
