The spacious owner's suite offers a beautifully upgraded bath featuring a fully tiled walk-in shower with built-in bench, while the owner's closet includes storage cabinetry for exceptional organization. Upstairs, you'll also find finished storage space with laminate flooring, providing convenient room for seasonal décor or additional storage. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a stamped concrete front porch, a spacious screened porch, and an extended stamped concrete patio overlooking the private wooded backdrop. Whether enjoying your morning coffee or hosting friends, these inviting spaces offer year-round enjoyment while taking full advantage of the home's exceptional privacy. The oversized extended garage is a standout feature, complete with epoxy floors, utility sink, storage cabinets, pull-down attic access, and additional workspace. Additional upgrades include a whole-house generator, tankless water heater, floating shelves, and numerous extras that can convey with the home, including the washer, dryer, refrigerator, multiple televisions, and even the home's safe.
