Welcome to 722 Gillespie Avenue, a beautifully refreshed 3-bed, 2-bath detached home offering the ultimate turn-key opportunity. Ideal for first-time buyers, starting families, or those downsizing into manageable living, this home spans just under 1,000 sq ft of highly efficient space with all high-ticket updates completed. The exterior shines with brand-new vinyl siding, while the interior boasts fresh modern paint and brand-new, energy-efficient windows that flood the rooms with natural light. Designed for effortless living, the main level features a cozy living area, a full bath, and a highly desirable main-floor bedroom, perfect for accessible main-level living. Upstairs finds two additional bedrooms alongside a game-changing upgrade: a brand-new, freshly added 2-piece bath.
