From the moment you step inside, you’ll appreciate the fresh, clean appeal of this spacious, truly move-in-ready home. Throughout the main level, seamless vinyl plank flooring and neutral paint create a light, bright, and welcoming atmosphere. The inviting foyer opens to a formal dining room and a versatile office/flex space, flowing naturally into the cozy family room and kitchen. Designed with both everyday living and entertaining in mind, the kitchen features granite countertops, black appliances, abundant counter space, and a convenient butler’s pantry. The breakfast bar extends seamlessly toward the family room, making it easy to stay connected with family and guests while preparing meals. Just beyond the kitchen, the family room provides a comfortable gathering space highlighted by a gas fireplace, adding warmth and ambiance on cooler evenings. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite offers a relaxing retreat with an ensuite bath and an oversized walk-in closet. A large bonus room/fifth bedroom with built-ins provides even more flexibility, whether you need space for guests, a home office, recreation, or hobbies. Three additional bedrooms, each with great closet space, share a hallway bath, while a catwalk overlooking the dramatic two-story foyer adds an open and airy feel to the second floor.
