This West End beauty blends charm and modern convenience from the moment you arrive. Step onto the inviting covered porch and into a home that’s been thoughtfully updated throughout. The kitchen offers clean lines and function with solid-surface counters, stainless appliances, and custom cabinetry. The main floor bath is fully renovated, and the finished basement includes a legal 4th bedroom with egress—perfect for guests or a home office. Major improvements include a new roof (2023), updated plumbing and new drains, a newer water heater, exterior drain line, insulated crawl spaces, and a smart thermostat for energy efficiency. You'll also find peace of mind with a radon mitigation system (2022). Outside, enjoy a fenced backyard retreat with a stained concrete patio. This home is truly move-in ready—inside and out.
