Newly refinished hardwood floors and fresh paint flow throughout the main level, creating a clean and inviting atmosphere. To the right, a spacious living room features a true masonry wood-burning fireplace with a classic marble surround, while the adjacent dining area includes direct outdoor access to one of TWO carports. The kitchen combines charm and functionality with freshly painted cabinetry, countertops, brand new stainless steel appliances, a customized pantry and spice cabinetry, and a cozy attached porch that fills the space with light.
