The home has been tastefully refreshed with updated lighting, ceiling fans, and a fully remodeled bathroom with ceramic tile finishes (2024). Major mechanical updates offer peace of mind, including a new furnace and 100-amp electrical panel (2023), along with professional gutter guards and newer washer and dryer (2024). The entire interior has been freshly painted, complemented by new window treatments and modern finishes. The basement is clean, dry, and highly functional, featuring vinyl flooring, sealed and painted walls, newer glass block windows (2023), drain tiles, and a sump pump with battery backup-ideal for additional living space, storage, or recreation. The oversized garage with approximate 10 feet door height provides exceptional space for large vehicles, boats, equipment, or additional storage. Enjoy outdoor living on the private patio behind the garage, complete with a firepit-perfect for relaxing evenings and taking in the peaceful setting, with occasional deer sightings adding to the charm.
