Property Description
Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac, this modern open-concept home, built in 1989, offers an excellent opportunity for first-time buyers or those looking to downsize. The south-facing back windows floods the interior with natural light throughout the day, while numerous windows provide pleasant views in every direction. The foyer opens into a spacious living and dining area with soaring vaulted ceilings and sliding glass doors that lead to the backyard. The layout flows seamlessly into the kitchen, creating an ideal space for everyday living or entertaining. A first-floor hallway leads to two bedrooms, a full hall bath, a laundry/utility room, and access to the attached garage. Upstairs, you'll find the primary bedroom, an en-suit full bath, and an open loft area-perfect for a home office, playroom, or cozy den. Ample storage is available with double closets in every bedroom and additional hallway closets. While the home is in need of total updating and personal touches, it offers a wonderful foundation and great potential to make it your own.
