About This Home
As of June 2025Welcome to this beautifully maintained ranch-style home, perfectly positioned on a quiet, tree-lined street in one of the area’s most desirable neighborhoods. Curb appeal abounds with level grounds, extensive professional landscaping, and mature plantings that offer both beauty and privacy year-round. Step inside and immediately feel the warmth of a thoughtfully designed floor plan. The sun-filled main living area is anchored by a stunning stone fireplace with a custom mantle and mounted TV, flanked by bay windows and complemented by immaculate hardwood floors and recessed lighting throughout. The flow continues seamlessly into the sunken morning room—ideal for relaxed mornings, informal meals, or simply taking in the view of the manicured backyard. The heart of the home is the gourmet kitchen, featuring striking Black Galaxy quartzite countertops with an abundance of workspace, glass-front cabinetry with elegant built-ins, and easy access to the extended garage for added convenience. The garage offers automatic entry, interior access off the kitchen, and ample overhead storage. Down the wide hallway, you’ll find three generously sized bedrooms on the main level, each freshly painted with upgraded lighting and filled with natural light. Two full bathrooms serve the main floor—one offering a soaking tub, the other a walk-in shower—each designed for both function and comfort, ready for you to make them your own. Head downstairs to the partially finished lower level, where you’ll find a versatile bonus bedroom with recessed lighting, built-in cabinetry, and a full closet—perfect as a guest suite, office, or home gym. Upgrades in the basement include luxury vinyl plank flooring, a well-appointed laundry area, brand new water heater, and upgraded 200-amp power service. Additional highlights include an Ecobee smart thermostat system for year-round efficiency and comfort, and freshly painted interiors throughout, making this home truly move-in ready. Lastly, to allay any buyer concerns, the Seller is offering a 1-year home warranty from American Home Shield for total piece of mind.
