Upstairs, the second floor boasts three bright and spacious bedrooms, each with generous closet space.

This home has been thoughtfully updated with a new blacktopped driveway that fits at least four cars, a brand-new hot water tank (2024), and a newer HVAC system to keep you comfortable year-round. Conveniently located just off the living room is a powder room and easy access to your private rear deck, which leads to a massive backyard oasis.
