Tucked away on a private half-acre lot backing to protected parkland and trails, this beautifully updated home offers the perfect blend of indoor comfort, outdoor living, and move-in-ready peace of mind.

A welcoming foyer opens to bright, light-filled living spaces designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The custom kitchen serves as the heart of the home, offering excellent sightlines to the family room and backyard beyond.
