All systems have been updated with quality products, offering peace of mind for years to come. Additional highlights include a one-car garage with a sealed floor, an electric garage door opener, and an extra 20-amp power line. The unfinished basement offers laundry space (with a washer and dryer that can run on gas or electric) along with excellent potential for storage, a home gym, or future finishing. Outside, enjoy the recently refinished deck — perfect for outdoor dining or relaxation. Vinyl replacement windows throughout further enhance comfort and efficiency.

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
