Filled with natural light, the eat-in kitchen features granite countertops, ample cabinetry, and direct access to the backyard. A first-floor bedroom and full bathroom offer flexible use for guests or a home office, while a separate laundry area adds everyday convenience. The second level offers two well-proportioned bedrooms, including a generously sized primary suite with a walk-in closet and an en-suite bathroom.

Beyond the home, the property extends to a wooded backdrop that enhances privacy and is complemented by a rear porch.
