Welcome to 157 Clayton Street – a meticulously maintained home set on a spacious corner lot with open fields as your backdrop. The curb appeal is undeniable, with a clean exterior, attractive landscaping, a brand-new roof, and charming brick front steps that set the tone for what awaits inside. Step into a freshly updated interior, featuring new neutral paint and luxury vinyl plank flooring that create a bright, modern canvas. Graceful arched doorways add character, while the living room’s fireplace provides a classic focal point to anchor the space. Just off the living room. The dining room flows seamlessly from the living room and opens to the rear deck through large sliding doors, blending indoor and outdoor living. The kitchen is cheerful and functional, with crisp white cabinetry and a window over the sink that fills the room with natural light. The remodeled main bath stands out with white wainscoting and a stylish stained wood barn door. Three comfortable bedrooms, with ceiling fans, complete the main level. Outdoors, the backyard is designed for relaxation and fun. A combination of wood and stone fencing along the driveway provides privacy and style, while the expansive deck hosts an above-ground pool and hot tub, perfect for summer gatherings. A large concrete patio adds even more space for entertaining, while a detached one-car garage and shed provide excellent storage. Additional features include a flagpole and a spacious unfinished attic, offering plenty of potential for future expansion. Best of all, this property comes with no HOA fees, giving you the freedom to enjoy your home and land on your own terms. Set in a peaceful location yet close to everyday conveniences, this home beautifully balances character, comfort, and outdoor living. Whether you’re hosting family and friends or simply unwinding in your private backyard oasis, 157 Clayton Street (with its new roof and timeless charm) is ready to welcome you home.
