The layout seamlessly flows into the dining nook and the kitchen, a well-appointed hub of convenience. The updated kitchen boasts new stainless steel appliances, shimmering quartz counters, tile floors, and plenty of storage space for kitchen essentials.

Each of this home’s bedrooms offer comfort and privacy, and provide a continuation of this home’s cohesive aesthetic—crisp white trim, beautiful oak floors, and a calming, cool color palette characterize each bedroom. The same is true for the full bath—this pristine space sparkles with fresh, modern style!

This fully fenced space features a charming patio ready for entertaining, a lush lawn, mature greenery, and a handy outbuilding. Your very own getaway is waiting for you all summer long, and you can relax in peace and quiet out on the patio, or grill up dinner for loved ones.
