A tree-lined driveway offers abundant parking and leads to the expansive rear pole barn featuring electric and concrete floors--perfect for storage, hobbies, or workshop. Inside, durable luxury vinyl plank flooring flows through the main living areas, including the bright and spacious living room with a cozy electric fireplace. The kitchen offers abundant cabinet storage, quartz countertops, room for a sizeable dining table, and a stylish shiplap accent wall. Two of the three bedrooms feature original hardwood floors, including the primary bedroom which provides direct access to the beautifully renovated bathroom with a beautiful walk-in shower. The remaining two bedrooms are generously sized. The main-floor laundry room offers flexibility and could easily be converted to a half bath or pantry thanks to the large unfinished basement below, providing ample opportunity for additional living space or storage. One of the standout features of this home is the attached 756 sq ft in-law apartment with private exterior access. It includes one bedroom, a bathroom, kitchen, large living room, and laundry, ideal for related living, guests, or rental income to help offset your mortgage. Enjoy the outdoors year-round in the three-season room overlooking the backyard. The rear yard is an entertainer's dream with a massive pool-side deck, paver patio, and covered pergola seating area tucked behind a privacy fence, all set on a beautiful 3/4-acre country lot. Updated, versatile, and full of opportunity...this home truly has it all.
