Situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac and framed by mature trees, the property feels like a peaceful retreat while still being close to town. A manicured lawn and lush landscaping welcome you to the charming front porch. Inside, light-toned hardwood flooring and a thoughtfully designed open layout set the tone for gracious living. The main level features a formal dining room, a spacious family room, and a gourmet kitchen outfitted with stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, a breakfast bar, and a cozy breakfast nook. A bright bonus room provides flexible space for an office, playroom, or sitting area.

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
