About This Home
Nestled on a desirable corner lot in a quiet, tree-lined neighborhood, this exceptional 5-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence delivers the perfect balance of timeless charm and modern versatility. From the moment you arrive, the manicured landscaping and picturesque front-yard fencing create an inviting presence that feels like home before you even step inside.
Thoughtfully designed for today's lifestyle, the home offers a seamless open-concept kitchen and dining area--ideal for both everyday living and elevated entertaining. The updated kitchen is a standout, featuring generous counter space, light-filled finishes, and a natural flow that keeps everyone connected. A breakfast bar anchors the space, making casual mornings and lively gatherings equally effortless.
The expansive living room is drenched in natural light, highlighted by a stunning picture window that frames the outdoors like artwork. Additionally, the four-season room offers a cozy, sunlit retreat--perfect for morning coffee, quiet reading, or year-round relaxation as the seasons change around you.
Everyday convenience is elevated with a dedicated first-floor laundry room, thoughtfully positioned for ease of use, while an additional laundry hookup in the basement provides flexibility for future needs or expanded living arrangements.
Upstairs, three bright and spacious bedrooms provide comfort and privacy, complemented by a beautifully updated full bath and hardwood flooring throughout, enhancing the home's warm, cohesive feel.
A true differentiator is the flexible living configuration, featuring a potential mother/daughter suite with its own private entrance. This thoughtfully designed space includes two bedrooms, 1.5 baths, a generous living area, and another picture window--ideal for multi-generational living, extended guests, or a private work-from-home retreat.
The primary bath introduces a spa-inspired experience with a sleek wet-room design, complete with a curbless, open-plan shower that brings both style and function to everyday living.
Outdoors, the fully fenced backyard is designed for enjoyment--whether hosting summer gatherings, relaxing under the stars, or simply unwinding in your own private setting.
This is more than a home--it's a lifestyle opportunity offering flexibility, comfort, and effortless living in a setting that feels both private and connected.
