Surrounded by mature trees and beautiful landscaping, it feels peaceful and tucked away from it all. Inside, the open layout is filled with natural light, beautiful hardwood floors and updated lighting throughout. The living room is anchored by a striking stone fireplace and flows seamlessly into a well-appointed kitchen with stainless steel appliances and soapstone countertops, perfect for everyday living and entertaining. Just off the living room, a charming patio creates an easy indoor-outdoor connection. The primary suite is a relaxing retreat, featuring a generous walk-in closet and a spa-like bathroom. Nearby, the family room stands out with its high ceilings and sliding glass doors that open to the spacious backyard.
