About This Home
Tucked away on a quiet, wooded lot just under an acre, this thoughtfully updated 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home offers the perfect balance of privacy, space, and comfort. The lower level features a spacious family room, a convenient half bath, and several functional spaces including a laundry room, utility room, storage area, and a water hookup ready for a future wet bar. Direct access to the oversized two-car garage provides additional space for vehicles, tools, or hobbies. This level offers excellent flexibility—ideal for creating a home office, gym, playroom, or entertainment space. The upper level is filled with charm and character. Vaulted ceilings with exposed beams create a bright and open atmosphere, while the wood-burning fireplace and original hardwood floors add warmth and timeless appeal. The kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, with a breakfast bar, generous cabinet storage, and plenty of natural light. It flows seamlessly into the dining and living areas, making gatherings easy. From the dining room, step out to the back deck and enjoy peaceful views of mature trees and a serene natural setting. All three bedrooms are located upstairs, including a spacious primary suite with a private 3/4 bath. A second full bath serves the additional bedrooms, offering convenience for family members or guests.
Recent updates add peace of mind and value, including a brand-new roof (2024), central A/C (installed May 2025), and a new washer and dryer (2023). With its versatile layout, quality updates, and quiet location, this home is designed to fit a variety of lifestyles—whether you’re looking for a peaceful retreat, a functional family home, or a welcoming space to entertain.
