This beautifully maintained and updated three bedroom one-level home offers a unique, inviting design with distinctive angles, cathedral ceilings, abundant natural light, and an exceptional open-concept flow. The cozy front living room features a stunning two-sided center fireplace with pellet stove insert, flowing seamlessly into the dining area with access to the covered back deck and private yard. The bright gorgeous kitchen (redone in 2020) features shaker cabinetry with crown moulding to the ceiling, quartz countertops, subway tile backsplash, stainless appliances, and a unique work nook overlooking the backyard.
