At the heart of the home, the open-concept family room flows seamlessly into a remodeled eat-in kitchen boasting granite countertops, white cabinets & stainless appliances. A large utility room provides laundry space & additional storage. Out back, enjoy a fenced yard w/an expansive updated deck—perfect for relaxing in privacy. A covered carport doubles as an outdoor entertaining area, offering shelter for gatherings year-round. The wide driveway & updated landscaping enhances curb appeal. Additional highlights: hardwood floors (no carpet), updated windows & prime location near. This charming cottage is move-in ready and full of thoughtful upgrades.
