This spacious 3-bed, 2-bath home offers a perfect blend of comfort, functionality, and stylish design, all situated on a 0.15-acre lot just minutes from shopping, dining, and major highways. Inside, you'll find an inviting open-concept layout with vaulted ceilings and gleaming LVP flooring that seamlessly connects the kitchen, dining, and living areas. The bright and airy kitchen boasts Corian countertops, crisp white cabinetry, and a pantry for ample storage. The adjoining dining area provides access to the elevated rear deck, perfect for entertaining or enjoying quiet mornings outdoors. The living room is a true showpiece, featuring skylights and a charming brick wood-burning fireplace that fills the space with warmth and natural light. The main-level primary bedroom offers a peaceful retreat with updated flooring, vaulted ceilings, skylights, dual closets, including a walk-in, and a sliding door that leads to the rear deck. The nearby 2nd bedroom and office on this level share a full bath with a shower/tub combo, updated vanity, and mirror. The open half-wall in the office could easily be enclosed to convert the space to a 4th bedroom if desired. Downstairs, the fully finished lower level offers a large family room with built-in shelving, a full bath with a walk-in shower, a spacious 3rd bedroom, and a convenient laundry closet. Enjoy outdoor living to the fullest with both a Trex front deck and an elevated rear deck that overlooks the fenced backyard and in-ground swimming pool, your personal summer oasis.
