This super clean, move-in ready home offers the convenience of single-level living with no steps and a functional layout featuring both a comfortable living room and a separate family room. The home has been extensively updated with modern finishes and thoughtful touches throughout. Recent improvements include a refreshed kitchen with butcher block countertops, beadboard backsplash, painted cabinetry, new sink, faucet, range, and dishwasher. Bathrooms have also been updated with a new shower, vanity, flooring, exhaust fan, and a remodeled half bath/laundry room combination. Additional upgrades include refinished original hardwood floors in the bedrooms, new ceramic tile flooring in the kitchen and dining area, LVP flooring in the family room, fresh paint throughout, updated trim work, new lighting and ceiling fans with remotes, smart thermostat, Ring doorbell, keypad entry, and updated electrical box and wiring. New roof and gutters added in 2025. A new furnace and central air system will be installed prior to closing for added peace of mind. Enjoy cozy evenings by the professionally inspected woodburning fireplace or relax outdoors in the fenced backyard featuring a patio and pergola. The attached one-car garage, built-in dining hutch, and corner lot location add even more appeal to this thoughtfully maintained home. All appliances stay - just move in and enjoy!
