Featuring a flexible layout with 3 bedrooms on the main level and 2 additional rooms in the lower level, this home is designed for both everyday functionality and future flexibility. The main level offers a spacious and open living room and dining room area filled with natural light. A wide front-facing window allows sunlight to pour into the space throughout the day thanks to the home's east-facing orientation. The flow between the living and dining areas supports entertaining, family time, or casual relaxation. The completely updated interior features clean finishes, modern flooring, and bright neutral tones that create a fresh and welcoming atmosphere. The kitchen has been upgraded with new cabinetry, countertops, and appliances, creating a stylish and efficient workspace ready for daily cooking and entertaining. Its placement adjacent to the main living areas allows for seamless movement throughout the home and easy access to shared spaces. Three bedrooms are located on the main level, offering spacious layouts, ample closet storage, and bright window lines. Each room is designed to provide comfortable sleeping arrangements or flexible use as a home office or guest room. The lower level of the home includes two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a large open space that can be used as a second family room, playroom, or recreation area. The partially finished basement expands the usable square footage of the home and adds valuable living space with multiple configurations depending on your needs. The basement bathroom adds comfort and convenience for guests or extended family members staying on the lower level. Outside, the home features a large fully fenced yard that provides privacy, security, and plenty of open space. Whether you're planning outdoor gatherings, a garden, or space for pets and children, the yard is ready for your ideas.
