Lovingly maintained by the same family since 1987, this home combines modern updates and exceptional pride of ownership. No detail was overlooked in this home's recent renovation, featuring fresh neutral paint, luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, updated lighting, refinished kitchen cabinetry with a subway tile backsplash, and a beautifully renovated basement half bath.

Upstairs are three, well-appointed bedrooms all with ceiling fans and a full bathroom with tub/shower combo and custom medicine cabinet. The finished lower level offers additional living space full of retro charm, featuring a recreation room with a lava lamp-adorned dry bar that's already plumbed for a future wet bar. A beautifully renovated half bath and a separate laundry/utility room with direct access to the backyard complete the lower level.
