This updated 4-bedroom, 2-bath split-foyer feels welcoming the moment you step inside. The main-level living room features a cozy electric fireplace, making it the perfect spot to relax, unwind, or gather with friends. Just beyond that, the open kitchen shines with quartz countertops, a tile backsplash, and plenty of space for everyday living and entertaining.
Both bathrooms have been thoughtfully updated. Upstairs you’ll find a tiled tub/shower, while the lower level offers a walk-in tile shower, new vanities, and a fresh, modern feel. Throughout the home, you’ll appreciate the mix of durable LVP flooring in the main living areas and soft carpet in the bedrooms for added comfort.
Outside, enjoy a fully fenced yard great for pets, kids, or summer BBQs along with the convenience of a 2-car attached garage. With updates already done and a layout that just makes sense, this home is truly move-in ready.
