When you step inside, you'll appreciate the open-concept floor plan and vaulted ceilings that make living and entertaining effortless on both levels. The home is designed with accessibility in mind, offering handicapped-accessible spaces, a ramp, wide arched doorways, and easy flow throughout. The inviting eat-in kitchen is a standout, boasting abundant granite counter space, ample cabinetry, a stylish backsplash, pull-out shelving, and a charming coffee bar--perfect for slow mornings and lively gatherings. Two bedrooms feature warm 3/4" wood flooring, complemented by paneled doors and crisp white trim throughout the home.

It opens to a balcony overlooking the peaceful, private backyard--an ideal spot to unwind and enjoy the view. The walk-out basement is truly a game changer, offering an expansive recreation room, fourth and fifth bedrooms, a 3/4 bath, and generous storage-perfect for guests, hobbies, or multi-generational living.
