Curb Appeal & Enclosed Front Porch
A brick-and-glass enclosed front porch gives the home a warm, welcoming first impression and a handy spot to drop shoes, bags, and coats before heading inside. Cream siding with a dark brown gable accent, concrete front steps with a wood rail, and a sidewalk out front complete the picture.
Main Level Living
Step into a bright living room with light taupe walls, neutral carpeting, and a decorative brick accent wall with tiled hearth that adds texture and charm. Replacement windows and flowing openings to the stairs and kitchen keep the layout easy to move through.
The kitchen offers a massive amount of kitchen storage, the wall of pantry storage and loads of cabinets, a double-basin sink beneath a window with excellent morning sun, a freestanding island for extra prep space. The refrigerator, EXTRA stand-alone freezer, range, microwave, and dishwasher are included, with a dining area and French doors that lead out to the deck for easy indoor-outdoor entertaining.
The main-level primary bedroom sits right beside the full bath, which features an updated vanity mirror and storage area. Main-level laundry puts the washer and dryer right where you need them, and both are included.
Upstairs Bedrooms
Upstairs you will find three additional bedrooms with soft carpeting, light neutral paint, white trim, and the cozy angled ceilings that give this home amazing character. Ceiling fans in select rooms add comfort, and there is a second full bath on this level with a solid surface vanity countertop. These bedrooms also work well as a home office, hobby room, or guest space.
Outdoor Living
Outside, a freshly stained wood deck overlooks a fully fenced yard framed by mature trees, giving you privacy for pets, play, grilling, and fall evenings. An enclosed rear entry offers a convenient back-door drop zone.
Garage, Parking & Systems
A detached, 1-stall garage with an opener, plus a wide concrete driveway, gives you room for multiple vehicles. Forced-air natural gas heat keeps things comfortable in winter, window unit air conditioning handles summer, and the partial basement adds storage space and rooms for the updated mechanicals.
