Everything has been updated inside out including new roof in '22, new a/c in '21, new windows, all new kitchen with gorgeous white, quartz counters, illuminated cabinets, under-cabinet lighting, soft close drawers and doors, lazy Susan and a breakfast bar/island opening to the dining area which opens to a lovely back deck through French doors with glass encased louver blinds. The large welcoming living room is accentuated by an additional space the enclosed original front porch offers, making a wonderful entry and sitting, computer or play area. Both full bathrooms have been completely refreshed to include new modern vanities, tile and fixtures. The main bath includes a tub with shower while the ensuite master bath has a roomy walk-in shower. The bedrooms are all generously sized with ample closet storage with a walk-in closet in the master bedroom.
