About This Home

Spacious, Light-Filled Retreat with Room to Grow and Entertain. This beautifully expanded 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home, is perfectly positioned in a peaceful, established neighborhood. With over 4,000 sq ft of thoughtfully designed living space-including a substantial 2016 addition-this home blends comfort with classic appeal. On the main floor, you'll find a large primary bedroom with an equally large bath featuring a whirlpool tub and shower, while the heart of the home-a large, open kitchen with a center island-flows seamlessly into a cozy family room warmed by a gas fireplace. Upstairs, a sun-drenched loft with skylights (currently used as a fourth bedroom) adds flexibility, along with two additional good sized bedrooms and a full bath-ideal for kids, guests, or home office needs. The fully finished basement is made for entertaining or multi-generational living, featuring a second kitchen and bar, large rec room with pool table, full bathroom, and another fireplace for year-round comfort. Step outside to your expansive deck-perfect for summer barbecues-overlooking a spacious backyard with an oversized storage shed. A heated garage, custom landscaping, and two decorative fountains add the finishing touches to this one-of-a-kind home. Whether you're hosting guests, growing a family, or simply looking for more room to relax, this home offers the space and style to make it your forever home.
