Situated on a full, flat acre, the property offers a generous front yard while still leaving an enormous backyard with incredible possibilities. Offering more than 3,000 square feet of single-story living, 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and garage parking for four vehicles, the home has been refreshed with a roof replaced in 2021, one of two HVAC systems replaced in 2022, new interior and exterior paint, lighting and fixtures, updated bathrooms, new door hardware, new front door, new carpet in many rooms, plumbing updates, new water softener, and new water heater. Generously sized rooms and an interconnected floor plan make this a wonderful home for entertaining. Wood flooring complements the main gathering areas, while expansive near-floor-to-ceiling windows and Solatubes bring in abundant natural light. The family room connects to the kitchen and air-conditioned Florida room, which features casement windows and plantation shutters. Updated in 2020, the kitchen features abundant cabinetry with wood pull-out drawers, a large island, quartz countertops, stainless-steel Samsung and LG appliances, and a glass-top ...
