Mature flower beds, a redesigned front porch, updated concrete walkway and spacious interlock driveway create a welcoming first impression and set the tone for the care that has gone into this home over the years. Inside, the carpet-free main floor features bright living spaces, an updated kitchen and three well-sized bedrooms. Downstairs, the layout offers exceptional flexibility with a large second kitchen, generous dining area and spacious recreation room.

Whether you love gardening, entertaining outdoors or simply enjoying a quiet backyard retreat, this is a space that has been lovingly established and is ready to be enjoyed.
