Flowing from generous foyer through the living and dining rooms, the standout is the kitchen an unexpectedly large and beautifully renovated space with center island, stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, skylights, and room to gather. A wall of glass sliders opens directly to the 20-foot deck with gas grill hookup, creating an easy connection between indoor and outdoor living while overlooking the expansive, private backyard.The second floor offers three bedrooms, including a primary with XL closet, along with fully updated bath featuring a tiled shower. The finished third floor adds two bonus rooms ideal for home offices, playrooms, or guest space, while the walkout basement provides great additional storage.
