Welcome to this well-maintained 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home situated on a beautiful corner lot with an expansive backyard and 2-car carport. Inside, you'll find hardwood flooring throughout, large bedrooms, and a bright layout offering great potential to make it your own. The kitchen was last renovated in 2008 and offers a functional space ready for your personal touch, while the bathroom has been tastefully updated in recent years. Major mechanicals have been replaced in recent years as well, giving peace of mind to the next owner. Please note: the seller currently occupies the home and prefers to maintain privacy, so interior photos are not available at this time. However, the home has been lovingly cared for and shows well in person. We invite buyers and agents to schedule a private showing to truly appreciate all that this property has to offer.
