Description

This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from February 09, 2024
Don't miss out on this incredible trilevel home nestled on a private road in Chatham school district! This 3 BR, 2 BA gem has undergone a series of fantastic upgrades that make it a dream home. As you approach, you'll be greeted by the charming curb appeal enhanced by a low-maintenance perennial garden that beautifully frames the property. Updates abound, starting with the installation of a November 2022 water filtration system by Aerus, ensuring your water quality is top-notch. The fenced-in yard, added in December 2022, provides both privacy and a secure space for various activities. A notable addition in July 2023 is the exterior water mitigation system, offering enhanced protection for your home. Inside, the list of improvements continues. All windows replaced from 2018 to 2021 come with a lifetime warranty, transferrable with ownership. The 2018 furnace and duct, along with the 2019 exterior doors, storm doors, and garage doors, contribute to the home's energy efficiency and security. Enjoy the year-round comfort of the 2019 sunroom, equipped with a split unit, a new ceiling adorned with crown molding, and new vinyl planking. The 2020 renovations include new bathrooms, refinished ¾” Red Oak hardwood flooring in the living room and bedrooms, new interior doors, and a stylish white vinyl fence in the front. The heart of this home, the kitchen, was revamped in 2022 with freshly painted white cabinets, a new countertop, and new vinyl planking.
