A back door off the kitchen leads directly to the yard, making outdoor dining and gatherings simple and convenient. The first floor offers two bedrooms, each with its own personality and charm. One bedroom has a calm and neutral design, ideal for a guest room or office, while the other has been thoughtfully styled as a nursery with a colorful accent wall that brings a sense of playfulness and warmth. The full bathroom on this level is bright and modern, designed with a fresh look that complements the home’s overall style. Upstairs, you’ll find the spacious primary bedroom retreat, which offers privacy and comfort with plenty of closet space and room for a sitting area or additional furnishings. The home also features a full unfinished basement, providing tremendous potential for storage, a workshop, or future finishing to suit your needs. Outside, the property continues to impress with a large, fenced-in backyard that is perfect for entertaining, gardening, or simply relaxing in your own private space. The detached garage adds both convenience and extra storage, while the driveway provides ample off-street parking. The home’s curb appeal shines with a welcoming front porch, updated landscaping, and mature trees that frame the lot beautifully. This home is truly move-in ready, offering a wonderful balance of character and modern updates. Its convenient location places you close to schools, shopping, and major highways, making it easy to enjoy all the area has to offer while coming home to a quiet, residential street.
