About this home

From the moment you arrive, it's clear this is a home that has been truly loved and exceptionally cared for. Every improvement has been thoughtfully made—not just for beauty, but for lasting quality and peace of mind. What truly sets this home apart are the major investments that many buyers hope for but rarely find already completed. Enjoy the confidence of a brand-new roof, complete re-piping, a professionally lined sewer line, and dual-zone HVAC systems that provide independent climate control upstairs and downstairs. These substantial improvements represent years of thoughtful maintenance and thousands of dollars in added value, allowing the next owner to simply move in and enjoy. Step outside into your own private backyard retreat. The recently upgraded PebbleTec pool sparkles as the centerpiece of a beautifully landscaped, low-maintenance yard that's designed for relaxing weekends, summer gatherings, and making memories with family and friends. Located in one of the area's most sought-after neighborhoods, you'll love the welcoming sense of community. Children ride bikes and scooters through the neighborhood, neighbors know one another, and top-rated schools are just one more reason families love calling this area home. Complete with an indoor laundry room with utility sink, spacious living areas, and an attached three-car garage, this home offers the perfect combination of beauty, function, and long-term value. This isn't simply a house with upgrades—it's a home that has been meticulously maintained, thoughtfully improved, and lovingly cared for.
