Inside, you'll find a thoughtfully updated space filled with natural light, boasting commercial-grade luxury vinyl plank flooring and modern light fixtures throughout. The spacious living room features high ceilings and a vaulted design that creates an open, airy ambiance, while the trey ceiling with tongue-and-groove detail in the master bedroom adds sophistication. In the kitchen, you will find granite countertops, a stylish backsplash, under-cabinet LED lighting, and upgraded Whirlpool appliances, including a double oven with four burners and a warming eye. This home features a Manabloc plumbing system, which offers centralized control for water lines, making leak detection and repairs a breeze. The primary suite is a luxurious retreat, featuring two walk-in closets, a garden tub, double vanities, and a Bluetooth-enabled speaker in the shower. Both full bathrooms offer double vanities for added convenience. The laundry room comes equipped with custom cabinets. This home also includes deeded access to two stocked lakes, offering opportunities for fishing and relaxing nearby. A 100-amp transfer switch is in place for easy installation of a whole-house generator. The A/C system has been serviced annually, and the heating elements in the thermostat were replaced in 2024.
