The separate dining room, also with hardwood floors, opens to a large back deck through French doors. The kitchen offers abundant oak cabinetry, stainless steel refrigerator, microwave, and dishwasher, plus a black range, new luxury vinyl plank flooring, and open shelving for pantry items. A convenient half bath with new flooring and fixtures completes the main level. Upstairs includes three bedrooms, including a primary suite with walk-in closet and updated private bath, plus another full bath for the additional 2 bedrooms. The mostly finished basement offers a spacious rec room-pool table stays!-and an escape window for peace of mind. The attached 4-car tandem garage is a showstopper, with extra height, attic storage, and garage doors on both front and back for easy access to the fully fenced yard. The oversized lot includes mature trees, a fire pit, and space for a garden, pond, or more. New A/C in 2024 and a new battery backup for the sump pump, too. Don't miss this one!
