The yard was fenced by the owners and selected to face a natural setting of trees, which adds natural wildlife beauty, plant and animal, including wild turkey and deer.

There is an unusually wide welcoming foyer at the front, which leads into the very OPEN FLOOR PLAN with Living Room, Dining Room and Kitchen, with lots of arrangement options. The Owner's Suite is spacious with a large walk-in closet and ensuite bathroom, convenient to a spacious Laundry Room. WHY BUY NEW, WHEN YOU CAN BUY "BETTER THAN NEW"??? This only 1.5-year-old home has been meticulously maintained and has given owners time to work out problems that typically manifest after purchasing a brand new home. In addition, the sellers made many upgrades to this standard home prior to closing and have since made more fabulous additions/upgrades! To begin with, the exterior of the home gives more architectural detail and more beautiful stone. Interior upgrades prior to closing include: upgraded kitchen cabinetry, quartz counter tops, ceramic-tiled bathrooms with solid surface counter tops, enlarged shower with tile, LVP throughout home (no carpet), laundry tub in utility room, extended porch with covering and extended patio area as well. Additions/upgrades since closing include: screened porch, custom ceramic-tile backs plash in kitchen, large new shower head in master bath, epoxy garage floor, window blinds throughout and fencing in rear. Seller is willing also to leave all appliances including washer and dryer, with acceptable offer (must be stipulated in contract.) Sellers originally paid approximately $315 G for all these nice features, but have since added extensive upgrades/updates, bringing not only the value up monetarily but affording all these extra comforts in the home, ready to start using right now and saving you the trouble and cash output to add all these items! This home is definitely "move-in" ready and offered at a GREAT PRICE, considering all the special upgrades it offers, not to mention the special lot it sits on! SELLER'S LOSS...BUYER'S GAIN!!! (Sellers hate to leave their home, but need to move back to be near family!) BUYERS, HURRY TO BE THE "LUCKY BUYER" FOR THIS "ONE-OF-A-KIND" SPECIAL HOME!!!
