As of July 2025This home lives bigger than it looks! Start with a convenient drop zone inside the front door. Now, step into a fully updated main level living area!

The open concept living, dining & kitchen have been fully updated with LVP flooring, fresh paint & new light fixtures. The kitchen sports new quartz countertops, appliances and a large island! This is a great space for cooking, entertaining or just relaxing at home! OH ... there is a door off the kitchen with access to the side yard and patio! Down the hall you will find a large primary bedroom and two additional, generously sized bedrooms. A beautiful, updated full bathroom completes this level! The lower level will not disappoint! On one side you will find the laundry room & plenty of storage space. The other side offers a finished area that can be whatever you want it to be. BONUS ... an amazing 3-season, fully enclosed porch off the back of the house! Spend lazy, rainy days/evenings relaxing in this private little hideaway. Otherwise, head out the back door to the patio in your fully fenced back yard! There is a beautiful, fenced in garden and a shed as well! It is all here! Call today for your private showing!
