Description
Welcome to this beautifully expanded 4-bedroom, 2-bath home — a place filled with decades of memories, care, and pride of ownership. Loved by the same family for many years, this home was not just lived in... it was cherished. Now it's ready for its next chapter and the new owner who will appreciate its space, warmth, and potential just as much.
Originally a cozy ranch, the home was thoughtfully expanded with a second-floor addition that brings incredible light, height, and comfort. The upper-level family room is the true showstopper — featuring vaulted ceilings, bright skylights, and an airy, uplifting feel that instantly makes you want to kick off your shoes and stay awhile. It's the perfect setting for gatherings, movie nights, laughter, and everyday living.
Supplements: The flexible layout offers room to grow with four generous bedrooms, including a main-level space currently used as a laundry room that can easily become a fifth bedroom or private home office. Recent upgrades include a new heating system and tankless water heater for modern efficiency and peace of mind. Located near shopping, schools, parks, and major highways, this home combines comfort, convenience, and character under one roof. Whether you're starting out, spreading out, or seeking space to customize, this lovingly cared-for home is ready to welcome you. Come see why this home has been treasured for so many years and imagine making it your own.
