About this home

Nestled on a sprawling private corner lot, this beautifully updated two-story home offers the perfect blend of seclusion, luxury, and recreation. The commanding curb appeal is matched by the convenience of a spacious attached garage, providing effortless entry into a home designed for modern living. The heart of the main level is the inviting living room, where a stunning fireplace serves as a focal point, perfect for cozying up on chilly evenings. This warm, communal space flows naturally into the gourmet kitchen, which features premium quartz countertops complimented by a luxurious backsplash. Large windows throughout the home frame views of your lush, wrap-around yard, ensuring every room feels connected to the outdoors. Head upstairs to the private quarters, including a serene primary suite, with spacious ensuite bath and walk in closet. The outdoor space is a true rare find: a professionally installed backyard sport court serves as your own private arena for basketball, pickleball, or training. Because this home sits on a premier corner lot, you enjoy extra privacy and space that typical neighborhood lots can’t match. Whether you’re hosting a summer game on the court or relaxing by the fire inside, this home is built for making memories.
