The open floor plan flows beautifully throughout the home, complemented by formal living and dining rooms and a spacious eat-in kitchen featuring 42-inch cabinetry, granite countertops and upgraded stainless-steel appliances. A gas fireplace with an elegant marble surround adds warmth and character, while upgraded flooring and fixtures throughout complete the polished interior. Upstairs, you'll find generously sized bedrooms, ample closet space and the convenience of second-floor laundry with newer washer and dryer. A full appliance package adds even more value. The finished basement provides tremendous flexibility for recreation, entertaining, hobbies and more, with a portion currently being used as a home office. Outside, enjoy a fenced backyard offering plenty of space to relax, entertain and enjoy the outdoors, while the two-car garage provides ample room for vehicles and storage. Perhaps one of the home's greatest advantages is its exceptional location.
