This 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home sits on a spacious, professionally landscaped corner lot with a flat, deep backyard-ideal for a pool, ADU, or expanded living. Inside, natural light fills the functional layout featuring original hardwood floors, fresh paint, updated lighting and fans, newer windows, and all-new cordless blinds. The fireside living room flows into a bright garden room with French doors and an adjoining sunroom-perfect for relaxing or flex space. The kitchen offers granite countertops, stainless steel appliances including a new range, generous cabinetry, and ample prep space, along with both a formal dining room and breakfast nook for everyday living and entertaining. The private primary suite includes a walk-in closet and en suite bath with double vanity, soaking tub, and separate shower. Secondary bedrooms are well-sized for guests, office use, or additional flex space. Additional features include updated plumbing and electrical, a French drain system, walk-up attic storage, and a partially finished basement ideal for a workshop or gym. The backyard features a stone patio and ample space to create your ideal outdoor setting, while a horseshoe driveway provides plenty of parking.
