This fully redeveloped Modern American Farmhouse-style home features four bedrooms and three bathrooms. It has been thoughtfully remodeled and expanded with all necessary permits in place, showcasing quality craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail. The interior and exterior are entirely new and exhibit a functional, modern layout. Each bathroom is finished with top-of-the-line materials-designer tile, elegant vanities, premium fixtures, and glass shower doors-so no detail has been overlooked. The master suite includes a gorgeous, spa-like bathroom and a spacious walk-in closet, and ample storage continues with two additional walk-in closets upstairs and built-in storage under the staircase. One of the home's focal points is the modern, airy wood staircase with glass balusters. The chef's kitchen is a standout, offering abundant white shaker cabinetry, a built-in pantry with tall cabinets, decorative open shelving, a large waterfall-edge island peninsula, and high-end stainless steel appliances; exposed wood beams and coordinating light fixtures add warmth and style. This space flows seamlessly into the dining area, which features an accent wall-perfect for entertaining. Conveniently located off the kitchen, a fully finished mudroom opens to the side and back yards and includes a built-in storage bench for gear and seating. The adjacent laundry room provides additional cabinetry for storage and accommodates a side-by-side washer and dryer, plus it houses an efficient tankless water heater. The living room centers around an electric fireplace with a rustic mantel and is adjacent to a flexible bonus room that can serve as an office, playroom, or extra bedroom. Throughout both levels, new engineered hardwood floors are accented by crisp white trim. Major systems and structural components have all been replaced or upgraded, including new windows, a new roof, updated plumbing, new soffits and gutters, LP siding, electrical, and heating and air conditioning systems. The crawlspace has been waterproofed with a vapor barrier to ensure a moisture-free foundation. Outside, the property sits on a spacious, secluded corner lot. A brand-new 2.5-car garage complements the home, with a new concrete slab, framing, roof, and siding. A new circular asphalt driveway in front and an additional side driveway to the garage provide ample parking for residents and guests. The large, landscaped backyard is partially fenced with privacy evergreens and includes concrete sidewalks and an epoxy-coated patio-ideal for outdoor relaxation and entertainment. Located in a peaceful neighborhood, this home exudes modern minimalist style and includes luxury upgrades throughout. Note: Tax information does not reflect homeowner's exemption.
