The first of two primary bedrooms is also on the main floor, complete with an attached ¾ bathroom, and the main floor laundry. Moving upstairs, you will find the second primary suite with a full, private bathroom, 3 more additional bedrooms and another ¾ bathroom. The finished basement offers even more opportunity with a spacious rec room, another updated ¾ bathroom and even a second kitchen!
The backyard is what truly sets this home apart, providing a level of privacy you wouldn't expect. There is plenty of space to entertain, cook out, toss a ball or simply unwind under the gazebo shelter while enjoying the wood burning stone fireplace.
New roof and gutters were installed in 2023, furnace and water heater in 2020 and energy star windows throughout. A home with this level of space, privacy, and location is not something that you see hit the market every day and is ready for it's new owner. Schedule your showing today!
