Charming, nearly new ranch home in the East River community offers the perfect blend of comfort, style, and easy living and all just minutes from the heart of downtown Smithfield. Built in 2023 and thoughtfully maintained, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home welcomes you with 9-foot ceilings, beautiful plantation shutters, and natural light that fills the space throughout the day. The open living area feels both cozy and inviting, centered around a gas fireplace with built-in bookshelves, perfect for quiet evenings at home or gatherings. The kitchen is designed for both beauty and function, featuring a gas stove, convenient pull-out shelving in the lower cabinets, and a charming island finished with shiplap detail and stylish paint accents. Whether you're preparing dinner or enjoying morning coffee, the space feels warm and welcoming. The primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with its elegant tray ceiling, spacious walk-in closet, and private bath designed for comfort at the end of the day. Step outside and you'll discover one of the home's most relaxing features, a screened porch with privacy shades that creates the perfect spot to unwind. The fenced backyard showcases flower beds, while the walking trail beside the home provides added privacy with no immediate neighbor on one side. Situated on a low-maintenance lot with a one-car garage, this home makes everyday living simple while still offering thoughtful outdoor space to enjoy. Residents of East River also enjoy full access to the Smithfield Recreation & Aquatics Center, adding even more opportunities for recreation and community connection.
