This one is a must-see. Meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated, this 3-bed, 2.5-bath home has a warm, welcoming feel the moment you are inside. It's tucked into an established neighborhood where pride of ownership really shows. The main floor features spacious living and dining areas with newer hardwood floors that bring a clean, comfortable feel. You'll also find an updated main bathroom, plus the convenience of a primary bedroom with its own private bath. Downstairs, the basement offers extra space to spread out - perfect for movie nights, game days, or cozying up by the fireplace when the weather cools down. Out back, the yard feels like a quiet getaway. Mature trees, a deck for morning coffee, a shaded patio for summer evenings, and a shed ready for your weekend projects.
