    What's special

    Walk-in closetsLarge and open rooms
    Introducing this beautiful 2 story, 3 bed/ 2 bath home. The first thing you'll notice on your way to the front door is the comfortable lounge area on the cool, covered porch. As you enter you're welcomed by a well lit, open concept floorplan. From the large and open rooms to the 8.5ft ceilings to the 6ft windows, you get the impression that there's much more space inside than you had imagined! As you move through the home each new room you enter feels as big as the last. In the updated kitchen (with matching appliances) you'll find the french doors leading to the inviting deck and pergola comeplete with plenty of shade to enjoy. All surrounded by a privacy fenced back yard to the 2+1/2 car garage. In addition to the kitchen, both of the bathrooms, and and the first floor laundry have been recently updated as well. You'll also really appreciate the 2 large bedrooms with sitting areas and a third, still nice size bedroom or office, all with walk-in closets. This home is well appointed, turn key and move in ready. So if you like what you see, pack your bags and let me be the first to say, welcome to home.
