Checked All The Boxes

Needed a house for USC graduation - this house was perfect for us. Fenced yard great for our dog & neighborhood nice for walking him. Not far from campus. Nice layout - large kitchen, dining room, TV room & best of all the screened in porch where we relaxed and enjoyed spending time together.
