Built in July of 2024, this stunning property offers open-concept living with thoughtful upgrades added after construction for both comfort and style. The main level features a designer kitchen with an oversized island, abundant cabinetry, and seamless flow into the dining area and living room with a cozy fireplace. The upgraded laundry room includes a deep utility sink and custom cleaning pantry, and the main level also offers two bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including a spacious primary suite. The finished basement expands the living space with three additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a large rec room--perfect for entertaining, movie nights, or game tables.
