Tucked behind a covered front porch and surrounded by mature landscaping, this completely remodeled four-bedroom ranch feels like a home you stumble upon in a favorite novel—quiet, welcoming, and full of thoughtful details. Step inside to an open kitchen and dining space designed for both everyday living and gathering. Quartz countertops stretch across generous workspaces, with abundant storage that keeps everything effortlessly in reach. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining room, where vaulted, beamed ceilings create a sense of airy warmth. A bay window frames peaceful views of the backyard, and a door leads straight out to the Trex deck—perfect for morning coffee or evenings under the stars. The primary suite is oversized and serene, overlooking the backyard and offering a private retreat complete with an en-suite bath and walk-in closet. Nearby, the living room invites you to slow down, cozy and comfortable, with a convenient half bath and laundry tucked neatly away. The fourth bedroom sits just a few steps up, featuring vaulted ceilings and a clever Murphy bed, making it ideal as a guest room, office, or flex space. Out back, the yard transforms into a secret garden in spring and summer, filled with blooming perennials, visiting wildlife, and a sense of seclusion that feels worlds away—yet you're only minutes from the highway (with none of the noise!). A large shed adds practical storage, while the full basement offers future potential to finish and expand. With extensive updates including mechanicals, roof, and windows already complete, this home offers peace of mind wrapped in charm, privacy, and storybook surroundings.
