281 Governors Lane 281 Rarely available ranch half-duplex that lives like a single-family home and offers the perfect opportunity to right-size without giving up space! Tucked away in a small enclave of homes, this spacious residence offers over 1, 800 square feet on the main level with a comfortable, open layout designed for everyday living and entertaining. A welcoming foyer leads to a private den/home office, while the vaulted ceiling, island kitchen with granite and Stainless Steel appliances and walk in pantry opens to expansive living and dining areas. Recent updates include new luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout the first floor, fresh paint throughout, new base trim, a new refrigerator, freshly painted garage, and updates to the kitchen and baths. The main level features two generous bedrooms and two full baths, including a spacious primary suite with an incredible four closets and private bath. Main-floor laundry adds everyday convenience.
