About this home
Summer is just around the corner and this beautiful backyard oasis is ready to host your POOL party! Pulling up the drive it's hard not to notice the beautifully landscaped yard. Enjoy morning coffee on the inviting front porch. Stepping inside the hardwood floors gleam and the neutral paint colors appeal. Notice the upgraded trim shadowboxes, chair rail, and crown moulding gives a distinguished feeling. Kitchen has been updated with granite counters, white tile backsplash, and white cabinetry. Enjoy sitting in the morning room, sun gleaming in, while overlooking that gorgeous inground pool. Upstairs the large master suite features vaulted ceilings and huge master bath with double bowl vanity and soaking tub. Down the hall are three sizeable bedrooms and hall bath. Full unfinished basement perfect for future additional living space or storage. Fenced in backyard ready for the fur babies. Two car front facing garage and extended asphalt driveway for additional parking. Great curb appeal and did we mention the POOL?!
