Before stepping out of this well-maintained home with its new roof (Summer 2026), you will eagerly anticipate exploring the extraordinary backyard sanctuary. Not only does the rear outdoor space blend aesthetics with a full stainless steel kitchen, but its design elements also create a comfortable outdoor entertainment area. The deep lot hosts the oversized patio, featuring an outdoor kitchen, a large dining area, and an inviting fire pit, creating a fantastic space for leisurely meals in the open air or quiet nights making s'mores. Furthermore, the pergola, with its aesthetically pleasing architectural design, features retractable fabric sides that protect from direct sunlight and create a more defined private space. This indoor kitchen offers nearly gourmet functionality, with Granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and ample cabinetry, creating smooth transitions between prepping, cooking, and serving areas. The large eating area provides comfortable seating, encouraging social interaction. The upper level boasts the owner's suite with a walk-in closet and bathroom with a tub/shower combination, as well as the other bedrooms and a full guest bathroom. The semi-finished lower level houses the recreation area, laundry area, and ample additional storage. The 240-volt outlet in the garage was installed for electric car charging in addition to the whole house surge protector.
