Welcome to Owl’s Nest where space, updates, and functionality come together on nearly half an acre. This 3 bedroom, 3 bath home offers over 2,400 square feet with room to spread out inside and out. LVP flooring runs throughout much of the home, and major updates include a 2018 roof, whole house generator (2018), and HVAC replaced in 2022.
The main level features a spacious kitchen, dining room, living room with fireplace and gas logs, plus a formal living room that would also make a great office or flex space. All three bedrooms and two full baths are conveniently located on the main floor.
Downstairs, the basement offers incredible versatility with a large rec room, two additional flex rooms perfect for an office, playroom, gym, or hobby space, plus a bar area with sink and a second fireplace with gas logs. A 2-car garage is also located in the basement area, along with built-in drop zone storage for backpacks, shoes, and everyday items.
Step outside to enjoy the back deck overlooking a private backyard. All appliances, including washer and dryer, convey with the home. Voluntary HOA offers access to neighborhood pool and playground amenities.
