Pride of ownership shines throughout this beautifully maintained, original-owner brick colonial offering 3 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, and a rare combination of updates, space, and versatility. Step inside to find a thoughtfully designed main level featuring a spacious eat-in kitchen with abundant quartz countertop space, warm wood cabinetry, and room to gather. The home offers multiple living areas, including a formal living room and a formal dining room, giving you flexibility to fit your lifestyle. A bright and inviting family room with skylights fills the space with natural light, while a cozy gas fireplace creates the perfect setting to unwind. A convenient half bath completes the main level. Upstairs, you’ll find three well-sized bedrooms, all offering comfortable space and functionality. The lower level adds even more value with a partially finished basement and a private office, ideal for working from home, hobbies, or additional living space. Major updates provide peace of mind, including a roof installed in 2015 with a 50-year warranty, a whole house Generac generator installed in 2023 and warrantied until 2033, and central air replaced in 2020. The attached two-car garage is deeper than typical and features recently replaced garage doors (2023). Outside, the home continues to impress with beautifully maintained landscaping that delivers standout curb appeal, along with a low-maintenance rear yard designed for easy enjoyment. A three-season screened-in porch creates the perfect space for relaxing or entertaining. For those needing extra space, the property also includes a detached garage/workshop with electricity, as well as an additional storage shed. Situated in a quiet neighborhood while still being close to schools, everyday conveniences, and major routes, this is a rare opportunity to own a home that has been meticulously cared for from day one.
