There's a hidden bookcase in the living room that opens to a private storage space and yes, it's every bit as fun as it sounds. But there's plenty here to love beyond the secret room. This five-bedroom, two-bath home offers a surprisingly flexible layout with three bedrooms on the main level, restored hardwood floors, a full bath, and a remodeled kitchen. Downstairs, the finished basement adds two additional bedrooms, a 3/4 bath, and an open living area with room for movie nights, a game space, home gym, or whatever fits your life. Even better, many of the improvements buyers don't necessarily want to spend money on have already been addressed, including updated windows, roof, siding, gutters, carpet, garage door, concrete driveway and walkways, along with updates to the kitchen and baths. Central air keeps things comfortable year-round. Outside, the 7,405-square-foot lot gives you genuine room to use not just look at with space for gardening, entertaining, pets, play, or creating your own backyard setup. Five bedrooms, two living areas, an attached garage, a generous lot, substantial updates and a secret area you absolutely have to find when you tour it.
