Whether you need extra room for guests, or home office, the layout offers flexibility and comfort. Downstairs, the basement provides generous storage space along with a new washer and dryer, convenience at its best. The current owner has poured love into the home with a series of thoughtful cosmetic upgrades. These include: custom new front and back doors, new light fixtures throughout, updated bathroom, new stainless steel appliances, new washer and dryer, a freshly painted front facade, and new privacy fence. With charm, functionality, and updates, this home is a rare find. Don’t miss your chance to make it yours! Enjoy East Mt. Airy living with nearby parks, playgrounds, and easy access to Lincoln Drive for quick city commutes.
