A gardener's paradise in the heart of Jerome! This absolutely charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath home sits on a generous 1/3-acre lot bursting with color and curb appeal! Butterfly bushes and native plantings attract monarch butterflies and blue jays, while raspberry bushes, blueberry bushes, and an asparagus patch offer delicious rewards for the home gardener. Inside, you'll find a warm and welcoming home with beautiful hardwood flooring and an updated kitchen featuring newer countertops (2021), dishwasher (2021), and stove (2017). The improvements don't stop there! A new driveway and patio were added in 2019, the garage floor was replaced in 2023, and the roof installed in 2011 features a GAF Weather Stopper Integrated Roofing System with a transferable 50-year warranty. There were additional updates in 2024 including gutters, garage and basement windows, carpet upstairs, kitchen flooring and a new refrigerator. Enjoy morning coffee on the covered front porch, afternoons tending your gardens, and evenings relaxing on the backyard patio. A detached 1 1/2-car garage adds extra storage and convenience. All of this in the wonderfully convenient Village of Jerome, with shopping, dining, and Springfield amenities just minutes away. A sweet home with so much to love, inside and out! Pre-inspected.
