And on this day in real estate history, we present to you this beautiful main level ranch townhouse in desirable Highland Glen. You WANNA BE STARTIN' SOMETHING special in your life? This stylish move-in ready gem hits the right groove whether you're a P.Y.T. or someone a little more seasoned. Its updated island kitchen welcomes you with wall-to-wall cabinets, quartz counters, custom tile backsplash, and stainless appliances. Extra storage for your culinary essentials and diamond-studded oven glove is just a short moonwalk away in the oversized pantry.

The private master suite includes a walk-in closet and en-suite bath, providing a relaxing retreat at the end of a full day. Plus, when you consider that this great home also includes an oversized second bedroom, newer mechanicals, and attached 2 car garage, I wouldn't blame you for thinking BABY BE MINE! And the location? You can't BEAT IT! Close to good schools, shopping, dining, golf, and entertainment. They say that it's HUMAN NATURE to want the best things in life.
