Tucked away on nearly 4 acres set back from a quiet cul-de-sac, this beautifully remodeled 3-bedroom ranch is more than just a home, it's a lifestyle. From the moment you arrive, the inviting curb appeal sets the tone, with a charming paver walkway leading to a columned front porch, the perfect spot to sip your morning coffee and soak in the peaceful surroundings. Step inside, where natural light floods the open-concept living spaces. Vaulted ceilings soar above the living, dining and kitchen areas, creating an airy, welcoming atmosphere. Enjoy hardwood floors, custom built-ins and recessed lighting, while a wood-burning fireplace in the living room promises cozy winter nights. The kitchen is designed for effortless entertaining, featuring quartz countertops, marble tile backsplash, soft-close cabinetry, stainless steel appliances and a center island. A breakfast nook is ideal for casual meals and morning conversations. Step outside to the tiered mahogany deck, where you'll find seamless indoor-outdoor living; perfect for summer gatherings and quiet evenings. The third bedroom off the foyer offers flexibility as a home office, while the outdoor spaces steal the show. Mature plantings, scenic rock outcroppings, a fenced-in, heated in-ground pool with a gazebo, and a nearby babbling brook create a private oasis. Whether hosting summer BBQs at the outdoor bar or enjoying a quiet afternoon by the water, this backyard is designed for relaxation and fun.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
