This meticulously maintained residence offers two full levels of comfortable living space, perfectly catering to all your needs. With numerous recent updates, this home ensures modern convenience and style. As you enter through the foyer, you’ll be greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere. The bright and spacious living room, eat-in kitchen, and separate dining room provide ample space for relaxing and entertaining. The kitchen is a standout feature, with newer stainless steel appliances, including a Samsung convection range, offering both functionality and a touch of elegance. Down the hall, you’ll discover three bedrooms, each offering a peaceful retreat. The updated hall bath features newer tile work and fully updated flooring and all fixtures, while the main bedroom boasts a very sizable, convenient half bath for added privacy and convenience, which has also just been newly updated. All bathrooms have been beautifully updated in 2022, adding a fresh and modern touch to the home. The neutral, gray high pile bedroom carpets were replaced in 2020, enhancing both comfort and aesthetics. Throughout the foyer, all bathrooms, and the downstairs office, you’ll find Lifeproof water-resistant luxury vinyl plank flooring, combining durability, visual appeal, and resistance to moisture. The lower level of the home is truly fantastic. The spacious family room features a cozy fireplace and sliders that lead to a fully screened-in porch, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow. This screened-in porch provides the perfect space to sit and enjoy the outdoors while being protected from the elements. Additionally, the lower level offers another half bath, a utility room, and a bonus room that can be used as a home office, with convenient access to the garage. Inside the utility room, you’ll find modern functional updates, including an LG energy-efficient washer and dryer from 2018 and a new utility tub installed in 2021. The hot water heater, also replaced in 2021, ensures reliable performance for years to come. Step outside to the fenced-in rear yard, offering a safe and secure space for pets to roam or for children to play freely. The expansive yard presents endless possibilities for gardening enthusiasts to create their own oasis, as well as the perfect setting for outdoor activities such as grilling, picnicking, or simply enjoying the fresh air. Noteworthy updates include a new sliding glass door and garage door in 2021, enhancing both style and functionality.
