What's special
Come take another look. Tucked into a quiet double cul-de-sac and backing to dedicated green space, this 4-bedroom Newcastle home offers a rare combination of privacy, flexible living space, and a beautifully landscaped, park-like backyard. Inside, vaulted ceilings and an open layout create an airy, welcoming feel, with engineered hardwoods, A/C, and an updated kitchen with granite counters, newer appliances, and built-in pantry storage. A standout main-level suite offers a full bedroom, separate sitting room, custom built-ins, and a beautifully finished 3/4 bath—flexible living space created from the home’s original second garage bay. Upstairs, the primary suite features a 5-piece bath with heated floors, skylight, soaking tub, and walk-in closet. New carpet, a remodeled hall bath, and custom closets throughout make the home genuinely move-in ready.
