Significant updates include a new roof (2023), expanded driveway (2023), renovated laundry room, updated windows, upgraded fencing, sump pump installation, and numerous lighting and interior improvements. The front porch was also enhanced with composite decking and updated columns. Adding even more value is the detached garage, offering incredible flexibility--ideal as a garage, home office, gym, studio, or potential guest suite. But what truly sets this property apart is the lifestyle it offers.
