As you approach, you'll immediately notice the meticulously landscaped sodded yard, newer roof, siding, stamped concrete walkway, inviting front porch, and elegant steps.

The living room seamlessly connects to the gourmet kitchen, creating a perfect space for relaxation and entertainment. The living room is adorned with recessed lights, large windows that bathe the room in natural light, a ceiling fan, and a convenient coat closet. The gourmet kitchen is a true culinary delight, boasting 42" walnut shaker cabinetry with quiet close drawers and cabinets, top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, exquisite granite countertops and island with seating for four, a tasteful tiled backsplash, and a spacious, deep stainless steel sink.
