Charming home in great neighborhood. Large two-car garage, rocking-chair front porch, and flat driveway. Home was power washed just prior to listing.
Beautiful hardwoods throughout the first floor. Fresh, neutral paint throughout as well. Living room is large enough to accommodate a crowd. Gas logs are great for chilly fall and winter nights.
Another view of living room showing how it opens to the dining room and to the screened porch. There is plenty of light in this room, and the large windows look out on the beautiful back yard full of azaleas, Eastern red buds, dogwood trees, and peonies.
Spacious dining room with elegant chandelier, crown molding, and chair rail. When the sliding glass door is open, it extends the living space out onto the screened porch.
L-shaped kitchen has plenty of counter space for food prep, and plenty of cabinets. Side by side refrigerator with ice and water in the door and dishwasher have recently been updated. You will love the gas range and the built-in microwave!
This kitchen has plenty of drawer storage, a corner lazy susan, and a custom tile backsplash. Ample space for preparing meals or entertaining.
Tranquil master bedroom with trey ceiling and ceiling fan. Fresh, neutral paint.
The master bath features tile flooring, double vanities, and upgraded plumbing fixtures.
Relaxing spa tub with tile surround and fully-tiled shower with glass doors.
Bonus room is currently a multi-purpose room but could be used as a fourth bedroom, an office, a media room, a play room, or a hobby room.
Plenty of space in bedroom 2 to have bunk beds and still have room to play!
Bedroom 3 has a twin bed in it now, but it can also easily accommodate a full bed.
No fighting for sink time here...large double vanity gives kids or guests plenty of space to get ready. This bathroom also has tile floors and upgraded plumbing fixtures.
The screened porch is a great place to enjoy meals, visiting with friends, or watching the kids play in the back yard. Look at all of those lovely trees!
Large deck with built in seating and planters. This is a great space for grilling or just hanging out with friends and family.
Great view of the fenced back yard. See the hammock between the trees on the right? This is a .25 acre lot but because of the neighborhood layout and how the back yards abut each other, it feels much larger.

First floor layout. There is a large area in the garage that can be used either for storage or a workshop area. There are also built in storage shelves along the left side of the garage.
This house has an awesome laundry room! The landing area is also large enough that you could put a small desk here and use it as a study area or put a chair and a lamp here and use it for a cozy reading spot.
