About this House

Beautiful and spacious one level living with a finished daylight basement! New professionally landscaped front patio with a shaded sitting area! Space where you need it and flexibility for the way you actually live. Want true main-level living without giving up room for guests and a home office? Want bedrooms close by on the main level now, with space to spread out downstairs later? Want a home that can adapt to whatever comes next? This home offers the flexibility to work for you now — and as life changes. This almost 3,400 square-foot ranch offers the primary suite with attached bath and walk-in closet, three additional bedrooms, laundry, kitchen and main living spaces all on one level. With six bedrooms total, there is room to be together — and room to spread out. The vaulted main living room centers on a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace and flows into the kitchen, breakfast area and bright sunroom overlooking the new deck and fenced backyard. Downstairs, the daylight lower level offers a second living area, with an expansive family and recreation space, wet bar with refrigerator, two spacious bedrooms, a full bath, and several hundred square feet of unfinished storage. Fresh neutral paint, new carpet, hardwood floors and new stainless kitchen appliances make this home move-in ready. This property will go live in the MLS on 9/18 after the planned front porch and patio improvements, along with new landscaping have been completed. Conveniently located near the Sports Pavilion, restaurants and shopping. Don't miss the electric car charging station.
