Welcome to 1553 E. Matisse Drive – a meticulously maintained end-unit townhome in the highly sought-after Village of Bayberry North! The lower level features stylish laminate flooring leading into a versatile family room, which is perfect for a playroom, home office, or media space. The washer and dryer are included, and there’s a rough-in for a future bathroom. The walkout basement opens directly to the backyard for added convenience. On the main level, enjoy an abundance of natural light and a spacious open floor plan complete with a powder room, living room, dining area, and kitchen. The kitchen shines with 42” cabinets with crown molding, recessed lighting, laminate floors, a large island, double sink, and new stainless steel appliances. Step through the sliding glass doors to the Trek deck (installed in 2021) and unwind with tree-lined views and breathtaking sunsets. Custom blinds add a polished touch throughout the main floor. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a walk-in closet and private bath, while two additional bedrooms and a full tile bath complete the level. Additional upgrades include new carpet, new HVAC (2023), double driveway, larger lot, and a 1-car garage. Become part of the Bayberry North lifestyle with walking trails, ponds, playgrounds, fishing spots, and The Lake House for private events and gatherings. Conveniently located near major highways, shopping, and dining. Don’t miss your chance! Join us for the Open House on October 19th or schedule your private tour before it’s gone!
