Description

This home has a lot of space with so many updates, you don't want to miss seeing this one! House was the last home built in the neighborhood in 1980. The entire house has just been painted and hardwood floors on main level were refinished. You will walk into the open floor plan with recessed lighting and straight back to the screened porch and a gazebo for that extra entertaining space. The kitchen has stainless steel appliances; microwave, gas stove and LG InstaView Craft Ice 27.1-cu ft Side-by-Side...This home has a lot of space with so many updates, you don't want to miss seeing this one! House was the last home built in the neighborhood in 1980. The entire house has just been painted and hardwood floors on main level were refinished. You will walk into the open floor plan with recessed lighting and straight back to the screened porch and a gazebo for that extra entertaining space. The kitchen has stainless steel appliances; microwave, gas stove and LG InstaView Craft Ice 27.1-cu ft Side-by-Side Refrigerator Smart with Dual Ice Maker, Water and Ice Dispenser ENERGY STAR which are 2 years old; the stainless steel dishwasher is 5 years old. The upper level offers a primary with full bath and large closet, two additional bedrooms and another full bath with double vanity, new carpet throughout this level and the steps. There is a pull down stairs to the attic which has R20 insulation for the best energy efficient home. The entire house has central ac, but the primary has a split unit for extra cooling which was installed just 2 years ago. The basement is fully finished with another full bath. The heat pump is less than 2 years old, the roof was installed in 2012, all rooms have ceiling fans, and sump pump less than 2 years old. Out back a new concrete patio and walkway, both installed two years ago. The back yard is very private and fully fenced with a custom 10x12 shed with workbench (2022). Driveway provides parking for two vehicles. So much seller pride in this home and a less worry home for the new buyer. Located in Kensington Improvement Association development, which is 2/3 County residents and 1/3 city residents. This neighborhood gets the best of both worlds! A voluntary HOA of $20 a year, the neighborhood has lots of activities throughout the year and very active. This one is a must see!
