Nestled among mature trees in the Seco Park Subdivision, this beautifully maintained 4-bedroom, 2.1-bath home has been thoughtfully designed to serve as a peaceful retreat from the demands of everyday life. The inviting composite front deck offers a warm welcome for both you and your guests. Inside, the foyer opens to a generously sized formal living room featuring laminate wood flooring and picturesque views of the shaded front yard. Adjacent to the living room is the formal dining room, currently used as a home office, offering a versatile space for holiday gatherings, entertaining, or working from home while enjoying views of the private, tree-lined backyard. The heart of the home is the beautifully remodeled kitchen, expertly renovated by Spears Construction. High-end cabinetry, quartz countertops, porcelain tile flooring, and thoughtful design combine to create a space that is both elegant and highly functional. The adjoining dining area is perfect for casual breakfasts, intimate dinners, or simply gathering with family. Just beyond the kitchen, the spacious family room-currently serving as a dining room-provides endless flexibility. Whether used for movie nights, holiday celebrations, or relaxing evenings at home, this inviting space offers direct access to the backyard patio, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living. A conveniently located half bath completes the main level. Upstairs, you'll find four comfortable bedrooms.
