## Description

### Agent Description
Neat as a pin and lovingly maintained -- this home is ready for its next chapter. Situated between the downtown area and Lake Opeka, the location cannot be beat! With three nice-sized bedrooms and a full bath, there's room for everyone. There are hardwood floors throughout the main living area underneath the current carpet, as well as a finished basement, complete with laundry room, storage area, and workshop. The huge windows in the front make you feel like you're in a tree house, surrounded by nature. There's even a lovely chinkapin oak in the backyard and perennials in the garden beds. Nothing to do but move in -- you will not see a more perfect mid-century modern home.
