Built in 1972 and lovingly cared for by the original owners, it’s where they raised their family, made a lifetime of memories and now, for the first time, are ready to pass it along to its next owner. The main level offers a spacious living room and an impressively large kitchen for its era, with abundant cabinetry and counter space. The dinette opens to the deck, while two bedrooms, a full bath and an unexpectedly large walk-in closet complete this level. The walkout lower level adds a family room, third bedroom and half bath with direct access to the backyard. And what a backyard it is!
