MISSION: Find a home that's actually move-in ready.
STATUS: Accomplished.
Built in 2015, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath home on the north end of Waterloo is ready for its next owners, and unlike your last DIY project, this one doesn't come with a never-ending to-do list.
The main level offers an open layout with a spacious kitchen, a pantry big enough to hide all the snacks, and a mudroom/laundry room just off the 2-car garage. You'll also find two secondary bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a spacious primary suite featuring a dual sink vanity, walk-in shower, and a large walk-in closet.
The walk-out basement is where things get interesting. Kick back at the custom bar, catch the big game or movie night with the projector and surround sound, challenge your friends to a game of darts, and don't miss the hidden bookshelf that opens to a secret closet. It's the kind of feature that makes every first-time visitor say, "Wait... do that again!" The lower level also includes the fourth bedroom and an additional full bathroom.
Out back, you'll find a deck overlooking the backyard, plus the walk-out patio below, giving you two great spots to enjoy the outdoors.
Finished with a brick front and located on the desirable north end of Waterloo, this home is clean, updated, and truly move-in ready.
The only thing left to do is move in... and decide what belongs in the secret bookshelf closet.
