Motivated Sellers! You'll love the attention to detail and plethora of upgrades brought throughout this sunlit stunning contemporary farmhouse nestled at the end of a cul de sac in a quiet yet convenient neighborhood.

Upstairs, the primary suite features a newly renovated master bath with walk in closet and jacuzzi tub. 3 more spacious bedrooms share another renovated bathroom with separate laundry area.
