Exterior improvements include updated concrete driveway, sidewalks, patio areas, and walkways completed in 2022, plus a newer rear fence section for added privacy. Inside, refinished hardwood flooring extends throughout the living room, dining room, and all bedrooms, while built-in hallway storage preserves the home's original charm and functionality.

Major updates include a new water heater (2026), roof and gutters (2024), central air conditioning (2023), and furnace evaporator coils (2024). Outdoor living is equally impressive with a covered concrete patio perfect for relaxing, grilling, dining, and entertaining. One of the property's most unique features is the approximately 20' x 10' detached flex space equipped with 240-amp electrical service and two fans, offering exceptional versatility for hobbies, projects, creative pursuits, exercise equipment, storage, or workspace needs. Additional highlights include an attached garage with refinished concrete floor, epoxy-coated basement floors, mature landscaping, extensive concrete improvements that assist with drainage and accessibility, gas furnace, gas fireplace, and the freedom of living without HOA restrictions.
