Freshly painted in today's popular colors, it features white six-panel doors and trim, elegant crown moldings, and many thoughtful updates throughout. The large kitchen offers white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, a pantry closet, and recessed lighting. It opens to a generous eating area with a beautiful bow window that fills the space with natural light. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the huge family room, where gleaming hardwood floors and a classic brick wood-burning fireplace with a gas starter create the perfect setting for cozy winter nights. Hardwood floors continue through the living room, dining room, and all bedrooms, adding warmth and charm throughout the home. The powder room, hall bath, and primary bath have all been remodeled or updated with today's stylish finishes. The spacious primary suite features two large closets and a convenient laundry chute. There are additionally 3 other great sized bedrooms all on the second level. Major updates provide peace of mind, including a roof that is only 13 years old, and a furnace, air conditioner, and water heater that are just 5 years old. The windows have also been replaced. Step outside to enjoy the huge fenced backyard with a large patio-perfect for summer barbecues, entertaining, or relaxing with family and friends. The basement offers plenty of potential and is ready for your finishing touches. Ideally located near parks, top-rated schools, and shopping, this wonderful home is ready to welcome its next owners.
