About This Home

As of September 2025

Beautifully Updated 1.5-Story Home with 4 Bedrooms & 2 Baths! From the moment you step inside, you'll appreciate the thoughtfully refreshed main level featuring a completely gutted kitchen with new drywall, stylish cabinetry, beautiful countertops, newer appliances, under-cabinet lighting, and new flooring throughout. The spacious family room addition offers wall-to-wall double-door closets-ideal for extra storage. A main floor laundry area includes a new tankless water heater, and the cozy living room shines with updated porcelain flooring. The renovated main bath boasts a new vanity, lighting, flooring, and tub surround. The 2nd floor bath also renovated with beautiful vanity and lighting. Throughout the home, enjoy newer Pella windows and upgraded blinds. Exterior updates include newer gutters, siding, roof, and exterior doors-all under 6 years old. The furnace and A/C are approximately 3 years old, offering peace of mind. But wait-there's more! The oversized concrete driveway has been extended, and the attached 1.5-car garage has been recently drywalled. Step out back and fall in love with the expansive privacy-fenced yard, complete with a generous paver patio-perfect for relaxing or entertaining guests. This move-in-ready gem combines comfort, style, and functionality in every corner-don't let it slip away!
