This updated home offers a bright and welcoming atmosphere, beginning with an inviting formal living room, dining room, and a spacious, sun-filled kitchen designed to catch the natural light throughout the day.
Upstairs, you will find a refreshed layout featuring new flooring and paint throughout. The primary suite is a standout, boasting generous space and a private en-suite bathroom. The two additional bedrooms are equally spacious. The upper level bathroom has also been fully modernized with new flooring and a sleek new vanity.
The main-floor family room serves as a perfect retreat, showcasing custom built-ins and a cozy fireplace—ideal for relaxing during the colder months. For added relaxation, step out onto the three-season porch to enjoy the view. The backyard provides ample space for gardening or outdoor activities, complete with a deck and a charming apple tree perfect for seasonal picking. The lower level adds valuable versatility with two non-conforming bedrooms and a flexible bonus space, making this move-in-ready home a true gem.
