Quality craftsmanship is showcased throughout with refined trim details, architectural columns, and thoughtfully designed built-ins that elevate every space. The sunken living room is highlighted by vaulted ceilings and a welcoming fireplace, creating an open yet cozy atmosphere as it flows into the formal dining area. A custom pass-through serving pantry adds both style and function, making entertaining seamless.

A primary suite on the main level provides everyday convenience and a private escape. Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms share a full bathroom, offering flexible living options for family or guests. The finished basement greatly enhances the home's versatility with a recreation area, wet bar, full bath, additional bedroom, flex space ideal for an office, gym, media room or play area, and a crawl space for added storage.

There is a two car attached garage with room for storage. Updates include: new 6" gutter on the front side of the home, replaced front downspouts, new dormer over the front door with new shingles and ice water shield in affected areas, and a newer HVAC system and water heater (2018).
