Even better—(new) washer and dryer are included, adding everyday convenience. Step outside and fall in love with the large backyard, where mature trees and vibrant flower gardens create a peaceful, picturesque setting. And don’t overlook the highly desirable 2-car garage—perfect for storage, hobbies, or protecting your vehicles year-round. And don’t forget the shed and pergola that stays. Newer roof on house, garage and shed in 2022. This is more than just a home—it’s a smart move with style, comfort, and room to grow.
