Simply perfect! This beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-full-bath Colonial/Farmhouse offers the perfect blend of charm, thoughtful updates and incredible spaces for entertaining. The chef's dream kitchen features tons of granite counter space, abundant cabinetry and a giant dining area that flows seamlessly into the large family room with fireplace. Truly an entertainer's dream! Upstairs, the primary suite offering a large walk-in closet and a beautifully remodeled primary bath, completed in 2024, with dual vanity, oversized shower, soaking tube and radiant heated floor. These are the kinds of upgrades rarely found in this price range. The charming screened-in porch/sunroom provides yet another wonderful space to relax with family and friends.

The fencing has been thoughtfully updated, including new wood fencing and two gates added in 2025, along with solar lighting throughout the yard. Additional improvements include new gutters with gutter guards, a newer roof on the detached 2-car garage, and a generator switch with outdoor plug. The enormous detached 2-car garage with shed offers plenty of room for all of life's "toys" and more. And don't forget-you are just a quick walk to the lakefront, beach and pavilion. A must-see opportunity!
