## Description

### Agent Description
Welcome to this beautifully remodeled home, where modern updates and thoughtful design come together seamlessly. Upon entering, you'll be greeted by a bright and inviting entryway filled with natural light from a large front window. The spacious living room serves as the heart of the home, featuring a stunning fireplace accented by a custom wood feature wall with built in storage, adding both character and functionality. The fully updated kitchen offers stainless steel appliances, abundant cabinet space, Quartz countertops, and a tile backsplash. Adjacent to the kitchen, you'll find a generous dining area complete with a stylish bar space, perfect for hosting family and friends. The main level includes two spacious bedrooms with ample closet space and a full bathroom. Downstairs, a second living area provides additional room to relax, along with two non-conforming rooms that offer flexibility for guests, a home office, workout space, or hobby room. Step outside and enjoy the porch overlooking the large backyard, creating the perfect setting for outdoor gatherings. Combining comfort, style, and versatility, this move in ready home offers exceptional space both inside and out. All information obtained from seller and public records.
