Surrounded by mature trees, this split-level ranch offers a smart, open layout w/a welcoming, comfortable feel. On one side, you’ll find three bedrooms along with a full bath; on the other, an airy & bright living room flows into the updated kitchen & dining room with sliding glass doors leading to a private back deck. It's an ideal space for entertaining, overlooking the pool & lush green, fenced-in yard with room to play or relax. Downstairs, a bonus room has served as a home office/occasional 4th bed/guest space, plus a large rec room with a decorative fireplace, half bath, laundry, & direct access to both storage & the garage. Between 2018 & 2020, the home saw major upgrades: new windows, HVAC system, water heater, kitchen appliances, fencing, driveway & interior paint. All just minutes from the town center’s shops, restaurants, library,& high school, with easy access to Route 3. Nature lovers will appreciate being close to the river and Manning State Park’s scenic hiking trails!
