About this home

Stop scrolling—this isn't just a "refreshed" house; it’s a 5-year labor of love (2020–2025) designed for total peace of mind.

Main Level Magic: Stunning refinished hardwoods, crisp paint, and new doors and hardware. Boutique Modern Kitchen: Small in footprint but big on style! This reimagined space features trendy floating shelves, sleek countertops, and a brand-new sink and faucet.

New electrical outlets, switches, and stylish fixtures, plus a sparkling refreshed upstairs bath and new downstairs bath. Forget "scary basements." This lower level is a clean, dry, bright blank canvas thanks to a full waterproofing system, dual sump pumps, and new structural walls...
