About This Home

As of June 2023

OFFER DEADLINE: MONDAY @ 5PM. This lovely townhome is ready for you to move in. You'll love all the modern updates and finishes. The main floor features hardwood floors and large windows front and back that let in tons of light. The kitchen has been totally redone with new cabinets, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, backsplash and flooring. The backyard has been thoughtfully hardscaped to provide multiple entertaining zones. Upstairs, you will find two generous bedrooms and an updated full bath. The oversized second bedroom could easily be separated into two smaller bedrooms, as has been done in many neighboring homes. The lower level has its own full bath and space to relax, work and work-out. All of this and tucked into a quiet community with plenty of guest parking and green space. Get ready to see it soon!
