This single-story home offers 1,731 sq ft of comfortable living space with 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and a 2-car attached garage. The functional layout includes a spacious family room with stained concrete flooring and customized shutters (warranty included), a cozy fireplace adds warmth to the main gathering space, an open kitchen with granite counters, black appliances, and a walk-in pantry, plus an open area perfect for a home office or formal dining area with newly installed laminate flooring.
The left side of the home features 2 bedrooms and a full bathroom, while the primary suite is privately situated at the back for added privacy and comfort. Flooring throughout consists of a mix of carpet, tile, concrete, and new laminate in select areas. The HVAC system, both inside and outside units, was replaced in 2023 for reliable year-round comfort.
Outside, the property offers a covered patio, a level backyard, and fencing with 8-ft panels on one side and 6-ft panels on the other, creating a private outdoor setting. Added conveniences include a large doggy door leading to the backyard and a small dog or cat door in the laundry room.
While the home is move-in ready, it does need some light updating and TLC, including paint, flooring, and minor repairs. The owner began installing LVP flooring, and a previous owner started an unpermitted attic room. The garage wall also needs some attention, though the home's solid foundation and overall structure remain sound. With its versatile layout, open kitchen-to-family room flow, and dependable construction, this home presents a great opportunity for buyers looking to personalize and create their ideal living space.
