Highlights include an open concept living, kitchen, and dining area with white cushion close cabinetry and drawers, a stunning six-foot quartz peninsula, a newly added counter with Pendant lights with space for stools, stainless steel appliances including a gas stove and a newly added skylight for natural light. A second skylight was added in the Hall bath. The living room features a fabulous electric fireplace, and the entire main level boasts durable hybrid core flooring with a natural wood look. Recessed lighting fixtures brighten the space, while a large pantry room next to the dining area provides plenty of storage. Keyless entry lock on side door. A new sliding door leads to the back deck and rear yard which would make a great spot for pool! A 2 Car parking Pad has also just been added for convenient off-street parking. The main level offers three bedrooms, including a primary ensuite with a beautiful bathroom and large closet. Two additional bedrooms share a well-appointed hall bath. All bath fans feature smart technology. The expansive lower level includes a large gathering room (note: the fireplace is currently non-functioning but potential for electric insert), a fourth bedroom with egress and an ensuite bath, and a utility/entertaining prep area with a wet bar and cabinetry for storage. There's even an outlet for adding a stove, making this space perfect for potential rental income or multi-generational living. Lower level has durable Luxury Vinyl plank flooring throughout. A spacious laundry room rounds out the lower level. Seller is offering 1k credit to Buyers for washer and dryer with a full priced offer. New AC and Furnace and water heater ensure year-round comfort.

Two new porticos were built to keep you dry as you enter. All the siding and the shutters have also just been replaced. Enjoy the rear yard from the new deck, which includes thoughtful privacy blinds built into the sides of the deck. A partial privacy fence and mature transplanted bushes add to the seclusion, letting you fully enjoy the natural surroundings. This spacious lot offers plenty of space for new Buyers to add a parking pad, driveway or even a garage. Located on a No-thru street on a cul-de-sac with no HOA , this is truly a great place to make your new home.
