Step inside a tiled foyer that opens to refinished OAK HARDWOOD FLOORS and a flowing main-level layout. The living room features a large BOW WINDOW flooding the space with natural light, connecting seamlessly to a formal dining room anchored by a chandelier and oversized windows with views of the front yard's mature trees. The kitchen is built for serious cooking - CHERRY CABINETRY with raised-panel doors, CORIAN COUNTERTOPS with abundant workspace, tile backsplash, and a full stainless steel appliance suite including a FRENCH DOOR REFRIGERATOR, DOUBLE WALL OVEN, glass cooktop, built-in microwave, and dishwasher. Two windows over the sink bring in natural light. The kitchen flows directly into the family room, where a TIMBERLINE WOOD STOVE set in a floor-to-ceiling BRICK SURROUND creates a striking focal point. French doors open to the rear deck for easy indoor-outdoor living. The primary bedroom is generously sized with a ceiling fan and multiple windows overlooking the wooded rear yard. The PRIMARY BATH features a CUSTOM TILE WALK-IN SHOWER with decorative inlay, upgraded vanity, and brushed nickel fixtures. Two additional bedrooms share a beautifully appointed hall bath with a stone-top vanity, custom tile shower, and framed mirror. The FINISHED WALK-OUT BASEMENT adds approximately 1,000 SF of flexible living space with a SECOND TIMBERLINE WOOD STOVE on a brick hearth, BUILT-IN BOOKCASES with a desk area, and a separate open recreation zone. This level walks out to the rear yard and has its own exterior entrance - ideal for a home gym, media room, home office, or guest suite setup. Additional unfinished storage, laundry, and utility areas complete the lower level. Outside, a FRESHLY PAINTED REAR DECK (2026) overlooks the expansive FENCED BACKYARD and wooded tree buffer beyond. The 0.84-acre lot provides privacy and room to spread out, with mature trees framing the property on all sides. A storage shed and oversized driveway at the cul-de-sac turnaround add convenience and curb appeal.
