Newly REHABBED in 2025, this gorgeous home with an IN-LAW UNIT on an oversized lot boasts four levels of living space with a total of 6 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and a full, finished basement plus a one-car garage with one exterior parking space. The main level features an open concept with combined living and dining rooms, an electric fireplace, gleaming hardwood floors, stunning light fixtures, custom geometric designs, and more. Prepare your favorite recipes in the spacious kitchen with stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, a waterfall island, and modern pendant lighting. A first-floor bedroom and full bathroom with an enlarged shower and floating vanity provide ample convenience.

The laundry room is appropriately located in its own space with a sump pump in the basement.
