The backyard is fully fenced with a beautiful expanded paver patio with a shed providing extra outdoor storage space. Going up the carpeted stairs, you'll find hardwood floors throughout the 2nd floor, with a large dormered bedroom with a walk-in closet plus 2nd spacious Bedroom with Built-Ins. Ceramic tile hall bath with linen closet to complete this floor. The roof was completely replaced at the end of 2025, along with new flashing, and gutter guards.
