A roof installed in June 2026--complete with a $5K Fortified Roof Upgrade--ensures peace of mind, while the generator hookup provides reliable backup power.

Practical updates continue with a 1/2 garbage disposal, updated faucet and towel racks in the guest bathroom, and an upgraded upstairs thermostat for energy-efficient climate control. The property's maintenance list includes a thorough dryer vent cleaning and both the house and driveway were pressure washed to maintain a pristine exterior. Additional highlights include a detached shed/workshop perfect for projects or extra storage, enhanced outdoor ambiance with exterior LED porch and garage lighting, plus updated bathroom lighting and mirrors. The kitchen and master bath have been completely remodeled and an inviting outdoor fireplace adds the perfect gathering spot.
