About This Home

As of April 2025

Charming 1998 Colonial on a quiet dead-end street near Sligo Creek Park. The welcoming front porch leads into a thoughtfully designed main level. Just off the entry, a study/den provides the perfect work-from-home space. Opposite the study, the dining room flows seamlessly into the renovated kitchen, which features a breakfast bar connecting it to the family room. A door from the kitchen opens to the deck—an ideal spot for grilling—while the attached screened porch overlooks the expansive backyard. A half bath completes the main level.

Upstairs, the spacious primary suite boasts a remodeled en-suite bath, accompanied by two additional bedrooms and a full bath. The unfinished basement offers endless possibilities for customization. This home shows beautifully and is move-in ready.
