Modern Living & Gourmet Dining - The heart of the home features a sleek, fully renovated kitchen designed for the modern chef. You'll love the precision of induction cooking, complemented by premium stainless steel appliances. The adjacent dining room is perfect for entertaining, featuring custom built-in cabinetry that adds both style and significant storage. Relax in the inviting living area, which has been upgraded with a contemporary electric fireplace and a dedicated TV zone, making it the ultimate spot for movie nights or quiet evenings. New patio sliding doors seamlessly transition to the large deck, perfect for outdoor dining. Stylish Upgrades Throughout - Include sophisticated luxury vinyl plank (LVP) floors which flow through the main and lower levels, as well as most of the upper level.

The electrical system has been completely modernized with a new electrical panel and a dedicated EV charger, ensuring you are ready for the future of transportation.
