Description
Welcome to this beautifully maintained ranch-style home, perfectly positioned on a quiet, tree-lined street in one of the area’s most desirable neighborhoods. Curb appeal abounds with level grounds, extensive professional landscaping, and mature plantings that offer both beauty and privacy year-round. Step inside and immediately feel the warmth of a thoughtfully designed floor plan. The sun-filled main living area is anchored by a stunning stone fireplace with a custom mantle and mounted TV, flanked by bay windows and complemented by immaculate hardwood floors and recessed lighting throughout. The flow continues seamlessly into the sunken morning room—ideal for relaxed mornings, informal meals, or simply taking in the view of the manicured backyard. The heart of the home is the gourmet kitchen, featuring striking Black Galaxy quartzite countertops with an abundance of workspace, glass-front cabinetry with elegant built-ins, and easy access to the extended garage for added convenience. The garage offers automatic entry, interior access off the kitchen, and ample overhead storage. Down the wide hallway, you’ll find three generously sized bedrooms on the main level, each freshly painted with upgraded lighting and filled with natural light. Two full bathrooms serve the main floor—one offering a soaking tub, the other a walk-in shower—each designed for both function and comfort, ready for you to make them your own. Head downstairs to the partially finished lower level, where you’ll find a versatile bonus bedroom with recessed lighting, built-in cabinetry, and a full closet—perfect as a guest suite, office, or home gym. Upgrades in the basement include luxury vinyl plank flooring, a well-appointed laundry area, brand new water heater, and upgraded 200-amp power service. Additional highlights include an Ecobee smart thermostat system for year-round efficiency and comfort, and freshly painted interiors throughout, making this home truly move-in ready.

Climate and Weather
The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
