A separate dining room provides a lovely setting for holiday dinners and special occasions. The spacious and elegant kitchen was designed for both cooking and gathering, with abundant cabinetry, spacious countertops, a tiled backsplash, recessed lighting, a large center island with seating, and newer appliances, including a top-of-the-line Beko stove. In addition to the formal dining room, the kitchen also features a comfortable dinette area for casual everyday meals. Sliding glass doors lead directly from the dinette to the backyard deck, making grilling, outdoor dining, and entertaining especially convenient. The generously sized Great room is comfortable and welcoming, with a vaulted ceiling and a cozy gas fireplace that will be especially appreciated when the cooler months arrive. The primary bedroom suite offers a relaxing retreat with a tray ceiling, beautiful laminate flooring, a professionally organized walk-in closet, and a private bathroom featuring a long double-sink vanity, jetted soaking tub, and a shower and toilet room.

With several distinct activity zones, additional storage, and room for everyone to spread out, this is far more than a finished basement-it's an entire second living level. A water-powered backup sump pump adds extra peace of mind by operating with municipal water pressure rather than electricity during a power outage. In the back yard - the fully fenced backyard is made for summertime fun and relaxed outdoor living. A spacious deck stretches across the back of the home, offering multiple areas for dining, lounging, grilling, and entertaining. The deck leads directly to a large above-ground pool surrounded by colorful flowering landscaping. Beyond the pool, the level lawn provides plenty of room for games, pets, or play. A separate gravel firepit area with overhead string lights is ready for cozy Fall nights under the stars. A charming outdoor storage shed, mature trees, and low-maintenance vinyl privacy fencing complete this inviting backyard retreat.
