About This Home

As of June 2025

***MULTIPLE OFFERS RECEIVED!! HIGHEST AND BEST DUE BY MONDAY AT 7PM***Welcome to this spacious 4-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home nestled at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac and backing up to a peaceful pond - offering both privacy and picturesque views! With 2,380 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, this two-story home is full of potential and charm. Step inside and you're immediately welcomed by a flexible front room - perfect for a home office, formal dining room, or secondary living space. Continue into the open-concept kitchen, featuring a built-in island, ample cabinetry, and a convenient half bath nearby. Just off the kitchen is the expansive main living room, complete with a cozy wood-burning fireplace - perfect for gathering and entertaining. Upstairs, you'll find an updated full bathroom, a dedicated laundry area, three generously sized bedrooms, and a spacious primary suite. The primary retreat offers its own private bathroom with both a soaking tub and a separate shower, along with a large walk-in closet. The fully fenced backyard is a standout - enjoy serene pond views, plenty of space to relax or entertain, and no rear neighbors. The home also includes a 2-car garage and an older sliding glass door, but the sellers are including a brand-new one (just needs to be installed!). With some light cosmetic updates, this home is a true gem waiting for your personal touch. Don't miss your opportunity to own this ideally located home with scenic views and versatile space inside and out.
