Welcome to this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom home, where comfort and convenience come together! Step inside the entry way to find warm hardwood floors that flow throughout the living areas and upstairs. The living room is bathed in natural light, making it the perfect spot to relax or entertain. The large kitchen is a chef’s dream, with a cozy coffee bar, tons of countertop space, and plenty of storage for all your culinary essentials. You'll also love the spacious family room located just off of the kitchen, which could easily be transformed into a first-floor primary suite to suit your needs. The full-sized unfinished basement holds a ton of potential—whether you're looking to create a home gym, extra living space, or a hobby room, the possibilities are endless. This home offers peace of mind with new gutters & leaf guards (2022), and a newer roof, windows, and central air installed by previous owner around 2021. Located just minutes from shopping and dining, it's clear that this home has been loved and well cared for—it's ready for you to make it your own! Plus, it can come fully furnished if you wish, making it an ideal situation for first-time homebuyers, those relocating, or anyone just starting out.
