The first floor primary suite features a walk-in closet and a spa-inspired full bathroom (2025) adorned with sleek quartz countertops, Kohler plumbing fixtures, a double vanity, and striking floor-to-ceiling tile. Upstairs, there are 3 generous bedrooms that share a gorgeous hall bathroom (2025) with quartz countertops and a shower/tub combo. Hardwood floors (2025) flow throughout the main living areas and bedrooms, while the family room offers plush new carpeting (2025), a vaulted ceiling, and a classic brick gas fireplace-perfect for cozy evenings. Additional upgrades include a new asphalt shingle roof (2024), new siding (2025), new epoxy floors (2025) in the garage, and a finished partial basement (2025) with a recreation space, laundry, and storage.
