A formal dining room and convenient powder room with side-by-side front-loading laundry complete the main level. Upstairs, hardwood flooring extends throughout, including a generously sized primary suite with walk-in closet and private bath with dual sinks, along with additional well-proportioned bedrooms. The finished walkout lower level provides exceptional versatility with its own private entrance, full kitchen with stainless steel appliances, full bath, and additional living space, creating exciting possibilities for extended family, guests, an accessory apartment, or additional work-from-home space. Direct access leads to the two-car garage with a high-efficiency Buderus boiler, HTP water heating system, and two workshop/storage areas. Significant improvements to the home include a 30-year architectural asphalt shingle roof, durable Hardie Plank siding, triple-pane replacement windows, and composite decking—valuable investments that enhance efficiency, durability, and ease of ownership.
