This level of the home is the definition of private living space where you can retreat for a movie night or just some peace and quite. The inside of the home is worth every penny but don't skip out on all of the awesome outdoor living space with over .25 acre of green grass! The back deck is perfect for outdoor entertaining, grilling, and casual Spring/Summer/Fall nights and the back yard has been fenced in to keep all the chaos in one place and provide more of a private feel.

This home provides location, space, and so much more to be desired...so don't miss your chance to take a look! Updates to the home include: crawlspace vapor barrier and encapsulation (2021), HVAC (2021), roof (2021), and upstairs carpet (2023).
