Completely reimagined from top to bottom, this exceptional two-story blends the character of an established neighborhood with the confidence of nearly every major improvement already being completed. Thoughtfully redesigned into an open-concept main level, the stunning kitchen features soft-close cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, range hood, under-counter beverage refrigerator, reverse osmosis drinking system and an expansive panoramic window overlooking the backyard. New dining room doors open to a fenced area perfect for pets, while the nearly half-acre lot offers plenty of room to relax, entertain, or play.
The transformation continues with beautifully remodeled bathrooms, luxury vinyl plank flooring, fresh carpet, professional interior and exterior paint, updated lighting, and a finished lower level with a spacious family room and a non-conforming fifth bedroom, ideal for guests, a home office, or hobbies.
Beyond the beautiful finishes, enjoy peace of mind knowing the big-ticket improvements are already done, including a newer roof on the home and detached garage, Pella double-hung windows, updated electrical panel, newer HVAC system, new gutters with LeafGuard, and two new garage doors. This is a rare opportunity to own a home where someone else has already invested in the renovations.
