## Description

### Agent Description
Hard-to-find backyard + screened-in porch in the heart of Beaverdale! This move-in ready home offers the perfect blend of charm and functionality, with beautiful hardwood floors and natural light throughout. The main level features a spacious living room, dedicated dining area, two bedrooms, and an updated full bath. The kitchen includes refreshed cabinetry and newer countertops, while the lower level provides flexible living space with a 3/4 bath-ideal for a family room, home office, or guest area. Step outside and you'll see what truly sets this home apart! A large screened-in porch overlooking a fully fenced, oversized backyard that's perfect for relaxing, entertaining, or letting pets play freely. The extra-deep attached garage offers tandem space for two vehicles plus additional storage. Located just steps from Snooki's and everything Beaverdale has to offer, this is a rare opportunity to get outdoor space, location, and move-in ready condition all in one.
