Step into this beautifully updated split-level home in one of the area’s most desirable neighborhoods. Designed for modern living, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence offers an open, inviting layout and a private backyard that backs to 8.5 acres of wooded serenity.
Relax or entertain on the brand-new deck featuring premium composite decking, where you can enjoy peaceful mornings and evenings surrounded by nature and local wildlife. Inside, the kitchen has been completely transformed with custom cabinetry, solid-surface countertops, and a stunning butcher-block island, all complemented by updated appliances. The open kitchen and dining area flow seamlessly into the spacious family room just a few steps below, centered around a masonry fireplace with new gas logs—a warm and welcoming space for family and friends.
Upstairs, you’ll find two generous bedrooms, including a primary suite with plenty of space to design your dream ensuite bath. The lower level features a flexible third bedroom—currently used as a music, gaming, and creative studio—bathed in natural light from a large window. A roomy laundry and storage area adds both function and convenience.
Behind the scenes, this home has been thoughtfully maintained and upgraded to ensure long-term peace of mind. In recent years, major updates include all-new windows, HVAC system, vinyl siding, roof, fascia, gutters, sliding door, and more. These improvements not only enhance comfort and energy efficiency but also reduce maintenance for years to come.
The location is just as impressive as the home itself. The neighborhood is known for its family-friendly atmosphere, tree-lined streets, and strong community feel. You’ll love the easy access to parks, shopping, restaurants, and major highways, all while enjoying the privacy and natural beauty of a wooded backdrop.
Whether you’re entertaining, relaxing, or working from home, this property delivers the perfect blend of modern comfort, timeless charm, and everyday convenience—a truly special home in an unbeatable setting.
