Inside the home
This is a large, well-built 1987 brick two-storey on a fenced lot in West Brant, and the bones are genuinely solid. The floor plan gives you four bedrooms, a separate formal dining room, a sizable family room with fireplace, and a main-floor den big enough to work from home or use as a fifth bedroom. The interior is almost entirely original — expect 1980s kitchen cabinets, dated bathroom tile in all three bathrooms, carpet on the upper level, and wallpaper in several rooms. The family room has had laminate flooring installed and a newer fireplace insert added, but those are the only significant updates visible. The backyard is fenced with a paver brick patio and a built-in brick outdoor counter. The double garage is a full-sized two-car at just under 19 feet deep. This is a property for buyers who want space and structure and plan to update on their own timeline.
