About This Home

As of January 2026

Located in popular Neucort Lakes across from Suppeland Park this 5-bedroom home offers lots of space in an open floorplan. The home presents large functional spaces throughout the entire main level. As you enter the home, the combined living room and dining room offer a flexible space for large dinner parties, or a quiet recess from the bustle in the home's main hub. The kitchen is open to both the family room and the sunroom providing a bright and free-flowing gathering spot. The kitchen features cherry cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and granite counter tops. The island doubles as a breakfast bar. The pantry closet delivers lots of storage in addition to the cabinets. There is room for a big kitchen table for informal get-togethers with friends and family. The sunroom is an added bonus with wrap around windows and a vaulted ceiling. The family room features a fireplace flanked by west facing windows. Hardwood floors tie the entire main level together. The second level offers five bedrooms and three full bathrooms. The large master suite will get high marks for a vaulted ceiling, walk-in closet, and private master bathroom with a double bowl vanity, soaking tub, and separate shower. The laundry is conveniently located on the second level. An unfinished basement offers loads of possibilities for hobbies, exercise, or just a place to play. Relax on the paver patio minding the grill listening to your favorite music. This is a meticulously maintained home that is ready to move in. 3D Tour is available on this property.
