A small additional office space conveniently located off the garage adds even more flexibility. The washer and dryer stay with the home. The dining room offers a built-in bench and tray ceiling, while the large living room provides plenty of space for gatherings. The finished basement expands the living space with a comfortable recreation area, bar, and half bath-perfect for entertaining, movie nights, or relaxing with family and friends.

Mature landscaping featuring redbuds, arborvitae, and Japanese maples creates a peaceful and private setting, while the patio, redone in 2016, provides the perfect place to enjoy the beautiful surroundings. The oversized 2-car garage offers excellent storage and convenience, with the garage floor redone in 2025 and a Tesla outlet installed in 2025. With numerous updates, beautiful finishes, versatile living spaces, and a backyard designed for enjoyment, this home offers the perfect blend of style, comfort, and functionality.
