The living room features a gas fireplace, while French doors open to a dedicated office. The white kitchen includes quartz countertops, island seating, tiled backsplash, pantry, upgraded stainless steel appliances, and LVP flooring that flows into the spacious dining area with access to the deck. A mudroom with built-in storage and seating, nearby half bath, and three-car garage add everyday functionality. Upstairs are four bedrooms, including a primary suite with a tray ceiling, dual sinks, tiled shower with glass doors, private toilet room, linen closet, and a large walk-in closet. The laundry room includes a utility sink and tile floor. The daylight lower level offers room to expand with a bathroom rough-in and space for a fifth bedroom and additional living area.
