Once inside, the well-maintained interior continues to impress. With four bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, it provides ample space for a family or for individuals who enjoy having extra room. Its proximity to I95 and the commuter parking lot is convenient for those who need to commute regularly. One standout feature is the lower-level entertainment area. This space is sure to be a hit with family and friends, offering a place to relax and have fun. The additional kitchenette area with a microwave, refrigerator, and sink adds convenience and makes entertaining easier. The recent improvements to the home are notable. The new kitchen appliances installed in 2022 provide a fresh and updated feel to the heart of the home. The new roof in March 2023 ensures the home is well-protected and minimizes any potential maintenance concerns. The garage door replacement in April 2023 improves functionality and enhances the home's overall aesthetic. The addition of a composite deck in June 2023 offers a fantastic outdoor living space for relaxation and entertainment. Lastly, the upgraded primary suite shower in June 2023 enhances the comfort and enjoyment of the primary bedroom. Overall, this move-in ready home appears to offer a comfortable and well-cared-for living space with desirable features. It's worth considering for anyone looking for a home in the area.
