Charm abounds in this lovely Bungalow, offering great flow, location and fantastic outdoor space. Its appeal starts at the curb, with mature, perennial garden bed and a wrap around front porch. Inside there's not a wasted inch. The sun-splashed entry with Bow window is a lovely place to enjoy morning coffee, with plenty of storage for coats and boots. The spacious Living Room with Bay window has beautiful wood floors and lots of recessed lighting. The sunny Kitchen (SS appliances & quartz counters) and open Dining Room are perfect for entertaining, with easy access to the Awesome backyard. A full Bath with jetted tub and Laundry beautifully complete the first floor. Upstairs offers 3 Bedrooms, including the ample Primary Bedroom with en suite Bath. The large backyard is an urban oasis, featuring a great deck and new, custom patio that overlooks the level, private fenced yard with an excellent Shed. Additional features include NEW FHA GAS Heat and CENTRAL AIR (2022), GAS Cooking, thermal windows, parking for 4, and amazing Solar panel system that cost $68.87 per month with about 9 years left on lease (copy attached), and it dictates that fixed payment will not go up. Except for 1 month, that's the ONLY electric bill the sellers have ever paid since they bought in 2020. As all utilities grow more expensive, the fixed price of the solar lease grows more desirable every month, and the sellers have been thrilled with the system. Best of all is the location! A great Ward 1 neighborhood in the heart of Wyoma, with easy access to the highway, parks, ponds, Lynn Woods, great restaurants, the beach, and all the other great amenities Lynn has to offer. This is a really lovely property!
