With over 3700 square feet on all 3 levels, this expansive 4-bedroom with office off the Primary, 3.5-bath Pulte Colonial seamlessly blends timeless charm with modern functionality, offering the perfect setting for both tranquil living and vibrant entertaining.

As you approach, a striking Japanese Maple welcomes you to the front portico and double-door entryway. Step inside to an ample foyer that sets the tone for the spacious, inviting interior. Freshly painted walls and gleaming hardwood floors grace both the main and upper levels, enhancing the home's warmth and elegance. The main level features generous room sizes and a circular flow that’s ideal for hosting. Outside, a picturesque backyard awaits, highlighted by a grand oak tree shading a large flagstone patio—perfect for relaxation or entertaining.
