About This Home

As of October 2023

((Available Sept 1, 2023)) Recently remodeled, this three bedroom, two bath home seems far more spacious than its approximately 1,600 square feet, due to a bright, open floor plan, custom ceiling treatments, and large windows. The interior decor offers the warmth of hardwood floors and a mellow color palette, set off by crisp white accents. Thoughtful attention to detail is seen in all the special features ceiling fans, skylight, recessed lighting, crown molding, media center with 65'' HDTV, and a cozy brick fireplace. French doors open to sunny patios, outdoor dining area, and picturesque rose garden, creating a pleasant indoor-outdoor ambiance. Even a reluctant chef will be inspired by the spacious kitchen.
