Imagine starting each day on your inviting front porch, coffee in hand, watching the morning light filter through your peaceful, private yard. Inside you'll enjoy, new carpet in the bedrooms, freshly painted walls and an updated bathroom set the tone for carefree living. The heart of the home—the kitchen—is thoughtfully modernized, ready for home-cooked meals and casual gatherings.
The layout flows naturally: three comfortable bedrooms flank the central living areas, including a primary suite with its own bath. Recent updates like new carpet in the bedrooms, an updated bathroom, brand new roof, a one-year Home Warranty, and recent HVAC system offer peace of mind and turn “move-in ready” into reality. These key upgrades mean you can focus on living, not fixing.
