Located in the sought-after neighborhood of Fair Oaks Estates, this immaculate home reflects true pride of ownership. A manicured yard and lovely covered front porch welcome you to this four-bedroom, three full-bath, and one half-bath colonial with neutral paint, new carpet, and hardwood floors on the upper two levels. The main level features a spacious living room with an abundance of natural light, two-story vaulted ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, skylights, and large windows with double-glass doors leading to a generous back deck. A well-appointed kitchen, featuring cherry cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, a dedicated pantry, and an eat-in area, is at the heart of this home. This level is perfect for entertaining or enjoying time at home, with its open floor plan, separate dining room, and updated powder bathroom.

The home offers the added convenience of a daylight lower level with a recreation room, an in-law suite with a bedroom/bonus room and full bathroom, an ample laundry/storage room, and sliding doors leading to the grassy backyard. All major systems have been replaced in the past five years: Water Heater (2023), HVAC (2021), Roof, Gutters & Garage Door (2020), Interior Doors (2015), and Windows (2012). Fair Oaks Estates features a community pool (membership available), basketball court, tot lots, and numerous walking trails.
