The residence showcases hardwood flooring throughout, adorned by crown molding and plantation shutters adding to its allure. The generously sized primary bedroom not only features a vaulted ceiling with an upper ledge storage space and a bathroom with a separate tub and shower but also houses an exceptionally large walk-in closet(with California Closet built ins). An additional three well-proportioned bedrooms are thoughtfully laid out, ideal for a growing family or a well-suited roommate arrangement. Overlooking the great room, the kitchen, complete with stainless steel appliances and pristine white quartz countertops, creates a seamless space for entertaining. Recent upgrades include a brand-new roof, newly refinished hardwood floors, fresh interior and exterior paint, and HVAC system and ductwork that's under a year old. Abundant storage options include a spacious attic.
