This move-in ready home offers a bright, open floor plan that seamlessly connects the living, dining, and kitchen spaces-ideal for both everyday living and easy entertaining. Blending modern updates with classic charm, the home has been thoughtfully renovated with new bathroom, kitchen, and bedroom finishes and fixtures throughout.

The kitchen flows effortlessly into the main living area, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Upstairs, you'll find two comfortable bedrooms and a well-appointed full bath.
