The kitchen features white wood cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, subway tile backsplash, and a gas range. Just beyond, a sunny rear addition lined with windows overlooks the backyard and offers exceptional flexibility as a den, home office, playroom, or reading room.
Upstairs are three comfortable bedrooms with hardwood floors and a classic black-and-white tiled bath featuring a skylight that fills the space with natural light.
The finished lower level provides even more versatility with a spacious recreation or family room, a full bath, abundant storage space, and a full-size washer and dryer. Whether used as a guest suite, exercise room, or additional hangout space, the lower level adds valuable functionality to the home.
