Overview
This adorable ranch in the Hillsborough Heights neighborhood has it all: quiet, light-filled rooms, a gleaming new kitchen with all new appliances, hardwood floors and crown molding throughout, a basement large enough for any hobby you could dream up, artful landscaping, and a backyard so big that it practically demands summer parties and lawn sports. Welcome to 523 Central Avenue, a 1,097 sq. ft. home featuring 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and a full standing-height basement on a 0.34-acre lot. Small touches here and there spark a sense of delight: the Rifle Paper Company wallpaper in the bedroom/flex room, the large farmhouse sink overlooking the sunny backyard, the Japanese maple and Baptisia varieties in the front beds. Not as visible but equally important are improvements such as a new Trane AC unit and ductwork, updated fixtures, and new ceilings that replaced dated acoustic tiles. 523 Central Avenue is minutes from downtown Hillsborough and Highway 70. It's a block from Hillsborough Heights Park, which is owned and maintained by the Town of Hillsborough.
