Welcome to this beautifully updated bi-attached ranch-style home offering comfort, convenience, and modern touches throughout. With 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms (1 full, 1 three-quarter), this home provides a smart layout that fits a variety of lifestyles. The finished lower level features daylight windows, a spacious family room, a full bathroom, and room to add a 3rd bedroom—perfect for guests, a home office, or a cozy retreat plus a large storage room. Since October 2024, several updates have enhanced this home, including New flooring throughout, a new furnace and A/C installed, a new kitchen sink and all-new appliances, Custom Blindster blinds on all windows, some updated lighting and interior doors, and more. A new roof was installed in 2023, giving peace of mind for years. Enjoy the country view off your deck and the larger-than-normal backyard with room for a shed or garden.
