The laundry room adds exceptional functionality with a utility sink, built-in folding table, and additional storage. Upstairs, the primary bedroom offers an attached full bathroom featuring a walk-in shower and two separate vanities. Two additional bedrooms and a dedicated office provide plenty of flexibility for guests, work-from-home needs, or additional living space. Other highlights include a full unfinished basement with great storage and future potential, a detached garage, covered front porch, and a spacious fenced-in rear yard. Major 2023 improvements include a new roof (TPO), thermal windows, as well as a two-zone heating and air-conditioning system.
