Open Concept Living: High ceilings paired with modern; bright white walls & lighting fixtures create a relaxing, expansive, and open feel. Main-Floor Master Suite: Convenient downstairs master bedroom featuring a walk-in closet with endless possibilities for customization. Spa-Like Master Bath: The downstairs bathroom can be accessed from the bedroom or hallway and boasts a large walk-in shower and a unique, sleek modern bathtub.

Turnkey Ready: The property comes fully furnished, including all new 2023 appliances, premium remote-operated privacy curtains, and original oil painting artwork. Flexible Square Footage: Features a full, unfinished, mostly dry basement with endless potential, plus a heated and cooled attached 1-car garage that can easily be converted into an additional master bedroom, if more room is what you need. Backyard & Outdoor Oasis Inground Pool: A massive 40' x 20' swimming pool with all-new 2023 water lines. Outdoor Conveniences: Fully equipped with an outside bathroom and a dedicated kitchenette for effortless hosting.
