About this home

Totally remodeled colonial home set on quiet street in great convenient neighborhood. Huge brand new kitchen leads to oversized deck and fenced in yard. Gleaming hardwood floors, mostly all new windows, high ceilings, newer heating and 200 amp electrical service and much more. Must be seen to be appreciated.
