Situated on a spacious corner lot, the property immediately stands out with fresh exterior paint, a new roof, and strong curb appeal, setting the tone for what awaits inside.

Both bathrooms have been completely renovated, including the hall bath with updated tile flooring, new vanity, and a tub/shower combination. A separate laundry room with added storage enhances functionality, while the attached garage provides everyday convenience. Major system upgrades include new electrical and plumbing fixtures throughout, as well as a new HVAC condenser with a 10-year warranty, offering peace of mind for years to come.
