If you're looking for "move-in ready" comfortable living that won't break your budget, check out this charming "open floor-plan" home in Candler. As you enter the front door, the wood-burning fireplace immediately catches your eye, bracketed by built-in cabinets on both sides. To your left, enter a long kitchen with lots of cabinet storage, plus a food pantry. At the end of the kitchen is a dining area leading to a sliding door that takes you onto a sizable covered deck. Back inside, left of the fire place, the family room (featuring a bay window) connects to the primary bedroom. An en suite bath and walk-in closet highlight the room -- adjustable shelving allows you to set up the closet to fit your needs. On the other side of the house you'll find a second full bathroom, as well as two additional bedrooms. Additional features include a large, gently sloped side yard, an outdoor fire pit with tree stump stools, a fully fenced back yard, and a good-sized storage shed (big enough to hold lawn mowers while still having a work shop area). Recent upgrades include fresh paint throughout, new waterproof vinyl plank flooring (whole house excluding 2nd and 3rd bedrooms), new vanity and toilet in primary bedroom, new entry door off of deck, new stairs and landing at front door, not to mention plumbing, HVAC and septic service and/or repairs (summary of all is available). Great location. Quiet neighborhood. Lots of room for play. Cozy, warm fire place when you come in out of the cold. Short-term rentals ARE allowed. Come check it out!
