    What's special

    Welcome to your dream home! This amazing one-story gem features not only a spacious main floor with 2 BRs & 2 full BAs, but also a finished attic space that adds even more living space. And let's not forget the fully fenced yard, complete with not one, but two detached garages - a 2 car & a 1 car. As you step into the main floor of this stunning home, you'll be greeted by a large living room that flows seamlessly into the dining area and kitchen. The kitchen boasts beautiful cabinets, ample counter space, & plenty of natural light for all your culinary adventures. With 1BR & 1 full BA on this level, it's perfect for those who prefer single-level living. But wait until you see the finished attic space! This oversized BR runs the length of the home & offers plenty of closet space for all your storage needs. It's truly a versatile area that can be transformed into an office, gym or whatever suits your lifestyle. The lower level is partially finished with laundry facilities - making chores less of a hassle. And don't worry about parking because there are 2 detached garages - perfect for keeping your vehicles safe from harsh weather or using one as extra storage. And finally, enjoy some privacy in your fully fenced backyard surrounded by a 6-foot privacy fence with an easy-to-use gate. It's ideal for hosting outdoor gatherings or letting kids & pets play safely. 13 Mo HWA Platinum Home Warranty included!
