About This Home

As of July 2024

This home is truly breathtaking and not to be missed! Exterior features include an oversized 2-car garage, white vinyl 6ft fence with 10 ft gates (2022), and a newly installed GAF charcoal roof with architectural shingles (2023). Inside you'll be greeted by an open floor plan with vaulted ceilings. The first level features a stunning floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace in the main living area. The kitchen has been recently remodeled (in 2024) and is a chef's dream, perfect for entertaining. It boasts 42" soft-close cabinets with under-mount hardwired lighting, Quartz countertops, and a beautifully contrasting black Quartz sink and faucet. A professional organizer designed the kitchen and includes integrated solutions for waste and recycling, spice racks, and kitchen utensils. The addition of solid wood white oak wide plank flooring in the kitchen and family room completes the transformation. If you need a break, step outside onto the screened-in porch or entertain guests on the outdoor deck.

The lower level is just as impressive! With two bedrooms, a living area, a walkout basement, and a complete kitchen (2022), this house is perfect for multi-generational families. The kitchen features new appliances, pantry cabinets with retractable shelves, and many integrated storage solutions. Both floors have dedicated space for a washer and dryer.
