Enjoy the perfect setting in the open-concept vaulted-ceiling family room, with French doors leading to the private, fenced backyard.
The home offers a rare main-floor master suite with two cedar closets and updated private bath. A second bedroom is also on the main floor, next to a remodeled full bath.
Upstairs, you’ll find a full bathroom, bedroom, sitting area, walk in closet and 8’x8’ flex space. In total, the home includes three baths.
The basement is freshly painted for a game room or play area. There is also plenty of unfinished basement space for storage or a hobby workshop.
Additional features include gas fireplace and main floor laundry hookup. Outdoors, the property boasts two driveways, single-car garage, and a storage shed. With over 2,546 SF of living space, new furnace in 2021, and original windows with storm protection, this property combines beauty and practicality.
