Meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated, this stunning residence offers over 3,000 square feet of finished living space, blending architectural character with today’s most desirable upgrades.

Inside, you’ll find a versatile and spacious layout featuring three bedrooms, four bathrooms, and multiple living areas including a formal living room, inviting family room, and a recreation space designed for entertaining. The private primary suite occupies its own level, creating a true retreat. The completely renovated primary bathroom (April 2026) showcases modern luxury, complemented by new carpet in the primary bedroom. The kitchen has been refreshed with a stylish new backsplash (2026), updated fixtures and lighting (2025), and features high-end conveniences including a wine refrigerator, trash compactor, and brand-new dishwasher (2026). Additional recent updates provide peace of mind and elevated comfort, including a new HVAC system (2024), hot water heater (2021), renovated fireplace (2025), updated lower-level bath and laundry flooring, and a roof installed in 2018. Outdoor enhancements include an extended deck and fencing, both completed in 2018. Car enthusiasts and hobbyists will appreciate the attached two-car garage along with an impressive 35x30 detached garage featuring drive-through doors—perfect for additional vehicles, storage, or workshop space. Located within the Roxana School District and offering a dedicated office space for today’s flexible lifestyle needs, this impeccably cared-for home is truly a rare find—where mid-century character meets modern luxury in a serene, spacious setting.
