This home, sitting on a big corner lot, is bright and beautiful. The lay-out is cheerful and convenient. The 1,250 square feet feel very spacious as you enter the sunny living room, walk through the the kitchen, and out back to see your garden bloom! There are 3 bedrooms: large master bedroom with full bath (with a surprisingly big linen closet!). Up a charming staircase are two bedrooms perfect for your children and/or visitors. The view out those upstairs windows is lovely: treelined streets, big maples, big Midwest sky. Original, solid pine floors in all 3 bedrooms, recently uncovered and ready for your design touches. The whole home has that "vintage farmhouse" feel, with modern updates. Roomy closets throughout so you will have ample storage space. Partial basement, unfinished but tried and true, never floods. New roof in 2024. Charming laundry room right off the kitchen, couldn't be more convenient. The kitchen has an abundance of storage space, and is very well-designed. Around the vinyl-sided exterior, the landscaping is a thick layer of river stones, never looks messy because it's so easy care! Rose bush, hydangeas and other perennials will delight you when spring arrives. Big corner lot, beautiful maple trees, and a large backyard deck with a clear view of the stars at night. Back yard has a freshly-laid cement patio, approximately 8x10 feet, ready for your cookout. The fenced-in yard is ready for your gardening skills, a playset, and/or a lively pet. There is even a raised garden bed. And the garage is set up for a great workshop, with electricity all updated, ready for your projects. The neighbors are friendly, and their homes are beautifully kept, too. Current owner is sad to leave this house and community, but needs to move nearer her grown children. Sheffield is a beautiful, historic town, and you will be living on the corner of an idyllic Main Street. You can walk to the grocery store, library, post office, coffee shop, pharmacy, boutique and clothing store, restaurants and much more. Within 1-2 miles of your house are the doctor's office, exercise gym, tennis court, baseball fields, reliable mechanic and more. All surrounded by Midwest beauty as the season's change. (And you'll have reliable central heating/cooling for those changes!).
