You'll appreciate the numerous upgrades, including hardwired TVs in the family room, office, and basement for seamless connectivity. A tankless water heater provides endless hot water, and the refinished hardwood floors throughout the main level and stairs add elegance. The updated laundry room and mudroom with a built-in bench system, Central Vac, Reverse Osmosis System, replaced well pump, and invisible fence all contribute to a comfortable, modern lifestyle.
