From the kitchen, step out to the deck overlooking a fenced rear yard with ample green space, perfect for gardening, entertaining, or simply relaxing outdoors. Upstairs, the peaceful sleeping quarters offer hardwood flooring throughout, a ceiling fan in the primary bedroom, and two additional well-sized bedrooms. The fully renovated bath showcases custom tile work, a new vanity, and on-trend matte black fixtures. The finished lower level expands your living space with a comfortable recreation room featuring new plush carpeting, a versatile bonus room ideal as a fourth bedroom or office, and an updated full bath with a walk-in shower. A convenient walkout leads to the patio, creating an ideal setting for outdoor dining or weekend projects. Additional updates include a newer water heater and furnace.
