Nearly 3, 200 finished sq ft, a walk-up basement with in-law potential, and a backyard that already has summer written all over it give this home the finished living space and flexibility buyers keep hoping to find. A brick front exterior, covered front porch, attached 2-car garage, and ample driveway parking create an inviting arrival, while the private fenced backyard features a dog run, two decks, garage access to the side yard, and a newly built 10 x 14 ft shed with power, a roll-up door, and man door. The main floor offers California knockdown ceilings, luxury vinyl flooring, plenty of built-in storage, a living room with an electric fireplace, and a dining room with a walkout to the deck. The updated custom kitchen delivers the space buyers love, with an expansive island with seating, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, pot lights, a tiled backsplash, upgraded cabinetry, tons of counter and cabinet space, a double sink, slide-out pantry, and roll-out pot drawer. An addition (2019) extends the dining room, primary bedroom, and lower level for added finished living space. The primary bedroom overlooks the private rear yard and features a walk-in closet, and 5-piece ensuite with double sinks, a standalone tub, and tiled shower, while two additional main floor bedrooms include space-saving built-in beds. The finished walk-up basement features a separate garage entrance, high ceilings, laminate floors, a large rec room with electric fireplace and dry bar, three bedrooms, laundry, and full bathroom.
