Pride of ownership shows in recent updates, from the refinished hardwood and tile floors to the updated kitchen, including cabinetry, lighting, undermount sink and granite countertops. The kitchen offers a contemporary feel with its updates, ample cupboards and counterspace, stainless steel appliances, recessed and pendant lighting and easy flow to the breakfast nook or formal dining room, which is set off with board and batten and a chandelier.

The second and third bedrooms share a bathroom with a large vanity and three closet spaces. Both bathrooms include partially occluded windows for privacy. While this home is located on a quiet, shady lot, the interior is light filled thanks to two sun tunnels and well-designed window placement that brings sunlight in and allows a view of nature in the lot, which includes mature trees and privacy. The attached finished garage includes parking spaces for two vehicles and storage space in a utility closet. There's room for a third vehicle outside on the parking pad. Home includes a security system, central vac and programmable thermostat. The design of this home also provides for exterior walk-in access to the crawlspace. This house doesn't just feature quality cosmetic improvements. Owner has replaced and updated windows to double-panes, replaced the garage door/opener and some exterior doors, added a new roof and HVAC, including a 96% percent furnace and 16 seer A/C, along with chimney updates.
