The conveniently located laundry room adds to the level's appeal. The third level offers a loft, the perfect home office or playroom, a bedroom, and a full bathroom. The lower level features a recreation room, additional bedroom, and full bathroom and has access to a rare attached two-car garage. The professionally landscaped exterior extends the home with a private fenced-in patio, expansive flat yard perfect for a pool, and a welcoming front porch. Located at the end of a private driveway perched at the top of a hill with dramatic views, this property offers ample off-street parking for convenience.
