From the inviting covered front porch to the spacious lot and fenced backyard, this home has so much to offer. Inside, you’ll find a functional layout with a main level bedroom, a flexible bonus space, and a full bathroom on the main level. The living room flows into the kitchen, which was updated in 2020 with custom cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and a walk-in pantry.

Major updates include plumbing and electrical (2020), roof (2019), HVAC (2020), insulation and weatherization (2021), and new siding, gutters, and window wraps (2023).

The basement is dry and includes a sump pump, offering great storage and peace of mind! The detached two-car garage has also been fully updated in 2023 with a new roof, siding, gutters, fascia, and decking. Out back, you’ll love the fenced yard with plenty of space to relax or entertain!
