About This Home
As of September 2022This 3 or 4 bedroom home is unlike no other! The attention to detail and continued upgrades are evident in every aspect of this property from the stamped and stained 6 car driveway, the professional landscaping, lighting, and lawn sprinkler system to the entire interior of the home right through to the backyard oasis complete with a 24' above ground heated pool and multiple-level decks and patios. The heated 2 car attached garage contains work benches and peg board for storing all of your tools. Inside the home you will find Corian countertops in the kitchen installed in 2021 along with new glass tile backsplash and pendant lighting over the island. New GE Stainless Steel appliances and Schrock Cabinets round it out. On the first floor you will also find a large Master Bedroom with new Barn doors to the closet, the 2nd bedroom, dining room, and a full bath. Downstairs you have a large living room, the 3rd bedroom, a full bath and a large laundry room. Step out the back of the garage and you walk into the large Family room with patio doors to the back yard. The backyard oasis includes multiple decks, pool, a screened porch area, and a composite bar with a concrete top. Do not wait on this one!
