Beautifully updated and meticulously maintained, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers peace of mind and modern comfort on a spacious half-acre lot in the highly sought-after Hononegah School District. Since purchasing, the current owner has invested extensively in meaningful upgrades, making this home truly move-in ready. Major improvements include a new furnace and A/C (2025), new insulated garage door with WiFi-enabled openers, radon mitigation system, added attic insulation, and a new water softener. The kitchen shines with updated cabinetry, granite countertops, an island, and a new stove/oven and refrigerator (2025). Fresh paint throughout the entire home creates a bright, cohesive feel. The main level features beautiful hardwood flooring, and newer plush carpeting adds warmth upstairs and on the lower level. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite offers a private retreat with a tiled walk-in shower, along with two additional bedrooms. The lower level expands your living space with a family room with a wood-burning fireplace, a half bath, and a versatile bonus room perfect for a home office or a gym. The sub basement has a rec room, tons of storage space and a new washer and dryer. Additional thoughtful improvements include fireplace inspection and cleaning with newly added glass doors, sealed and painted double deck, sealed recently replaced driveway, vent cleaning and updated dryer vent, and professionally maintained landscaping-all reflecting the pride of ownership throughout. Previous owner reportedly replaced the roof, siding, windows and driveway (w/extra parking pad on the side) in the recent past. Lovely, private setting in popular Kensington subdivision, the home sits on a half acre lot with a deck in the backyard and a shed for storage. With extensive updates already completed, this home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy both style and peace of mind from day one!
