Property Description

Thoughtfully and extensively renovated, this light-filled home offers a fresh, modern design, warm, inviting spaces, and an incredibly versatile, open floor plan. The stunning kitchen has been completely redesigned with custom cabinetry, new quartz countertops, and a premium Samsung Bespoke appliance suite. Both bathrooms were remodeled from the studs with updated plumbing connections, new subflooring, premium fixtures, and modern vanities. Beautiful LVP flooring flows throughout the entry, living, dining, kitchen, and hallways. Major improvements include all-new energy-efficient windows and frames, new roof and gutters, updated lighting and ceiling fans, interior and exterior paint, and extensive HVAC updates including a new Rheem furnace and indoor coil. The spacious living area opens to the kitchen and offers wonderful natural light, vaulted ceilings with striking beams, and a cozy fireplace. Step outside to the large deck overlooking a private, tree-filled backyard, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The redesigned xeriscaped front yard adds beautiful, low-maintenance curb appeal.
