From the moment you arrive, the inviting front porch and professionally designed landscaping make a lasting impression. Inside, the thoughtful floor plan features hardwood floors, formal living and dining areas, and a warm, inviting family room with custom built-ins and a gas fireplace. The upgraded kitchen is a standout, offering rich cabinetry, granite countertops, complementary marble backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and a casual dining area. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a walk-in closet and private bath, while the additional bedrooms are generously sized and filled with natural light. A recently renovated basement with electric fireplace adds flexible living space ideal for a home office, gym, theater, or playroom. Step outside to a beautifully hardscaped backyard with a fire pit and patio-perfect for gatherings or quiet evenings under the trees in your newly, privacy fenced extended living space. Storage comes in spades as the finished 2-car garage boasts a similar attic footprint. Additionally, a recently renovated shed is perfect for projects. Longevity is at the forefront with a newly replaced HVAC and 2023 installed electric garage door. Ideally located just minutes from downtown, as well as District 203's award-winning schools. This home offers the perfect balance of comfort, style, and convenience.
