The updated kitchen, with plentiful natural light, includes abundant cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless-steel appliances including a gas stove/oven, microwave, dishwasher, and refrigerator. The large windows above the sink are ideal for overlooking the spacious back yard. From the kitchen, step out onto a large deck (Trex planks), perfect for relaxing or entertaining outdoors. A beautiful, large live oak provides ample shade in the summer. The main level primary suite is accessed from a central hallway, off of which is a large bathroom and another bedroom/office/living area. Two large bedrooms are located upstairs, one with a full bath and the other with a half bath. The property is 0.25 acre, which is a sizable lot in this popular neighborhood.
