Ever dreamed of living in the perfect neighborhood where kids/adults bike & walk up and down the sidewalks with friends, basketball hoops line the driveways, flashlight tag is played on repeat, lots of open green space to play on and where you can safely walk to school just over the hill, without actually going on the main streets? This home is situated in a neighborhood just above the school where all of these things happen!! This beautifully maintained 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom home in a desirable neighborhood within walking distance of the school and town. This spacious home offers a welcoming covered front porch, perfect for relaxing mornings, and a large back deck overlooking a fully fenced yard, ideal for entertaining, children, or pets. Inside, you'll find wood floors throughout the main living areas and an updated kitchen featuring modern finishes, lots of storage space including a pantry, and plenty of workspace for everyday living. The newly finished daylight basement with multiple rooms including a full bathroom on this level, provides additional living space with abundant natural light and endless possibilities for a family room, home office, gym, or guest area. Upstairs you will find all bedrooms on one floor! The primary bedroom with a private bathroom and soaking tub and walk in closets are large and spacious. There are three more generous sized bedrooms which share a full bathroom on the second floor. Convenience is key with a 2-car garage with an electric car charger port, the garage includes direct access to the basement or the back yard too, making storage and daily routines effortless.
