HIGHEST AND BEST OFFER DEADLINE IS SET FOR WEDNESDAY, MAY 14 AT 4 PM. Can You Hear That? It's Potential Calling! With a little love and imagination, this spacious home could be the perfect canvas for your dreams. Overflowing with room to grow, it's ideal for a thriving household, remote work needs, or simply those who love to spread out. Step inside to a welcoming living room featuring a cozy wood-burning fireplace and an expansive front window that floods the space with natural light and frames views of the front yard. The living room seamlessly opens into a dining area and open-concept kitchen, making entertaining easy and everyday living comfortable. Just off the kitchen, a sliding glass door leads to the elevated deck-a peaceful perch to enjoy morning coffee while soaking in distant views or to unwind after a long day. The main level offers two comfortable bedrooms and an updated full bath. Upstairs, a full dormer adds generous space for two large bedrooms and a half bath-with ample room to convert it into a full bath. Laminate flooring and skylights upstairs add warmth and light throughout. The walk-out lower level features two spacious areas, perfect for a home office, guest room, or media space. One side provides direct access to the fenced-in backyard, ideal for pets, play, or private gatherings.
