This beautifully maintained 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath ranch-style home offers over 3,500 square feet of finished living space, blending comfort, function, and endless possibilities for both personal enjoyment and investment potential. This walkout ranch invites you in with a warm and open main-level floor plan, complete with a cozy living room fireplace, a hickory kitchen featuring a center island and snack bar, and expansive views of the private backyard and pool area. The main floor also includes a primary suite, main-floor laundry, and two additional bedrooms with a shared full bath.
