With approximately 2,250 square feet of inviting living space plus a partially finished basement, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath beauty is packed with features that go well beyond the expected. From the moment you step inside, you'll feel the warmth, space, and thoughtful updates that make this home an incredible find. Perfect for growing families or multigenerational living, this home offers two upstairs bedrooms with a Jack and Jill bath, as well as a bonus room, which would make a nice office, craft area or a place to relax with a good book. There is a main-level bedroom and full bath, and a lower-level suite with its own bedroom, full bath, and laundry-ideal for guests, teens, or an in-law arrangement. The spacious kitchen is the heart of the home, complete with stainless steel appliances, abundant cabinetry and counter space, a pantry cabinet and a pantry closet, and a charming garden window above the sink that lets in sunshine and frames the backyard view. Downstairs, the partially finished basement adds even more usable space with a cozy recreation room, and a workroom for hobbies or storage. The breezeway leads to your private hot tub room-an unexpected retreat for year-round relaxation. Car enthusiasts, hobbyists, or anyone who needs space to spread out will love the rare find of a 2.5 car heated garage connected to a 4-car heated garage-an incredible feature that's nearly impossible to find at this price point! Step outside to your fenced-in backyard oasis, where you'll enjoy quiet evenings by the fire pit, surrounded by mature perennials that come back year after year. Conveniently located near shopping, parks, schools, restaurants, medical facilities, and easy access to I-88, this home is as practical as it is surprising. With so many recent updates already done for you, this home is move-in ready with room to make it your own.
