The spacious primary suite has been thoughtfully updated with quartz countertops, dual closets, and a private ensuite bath, while the hall bath offers a relaxing Jacuzzi tub. The fully fenced backyard is a gardener's joy with apple and plum trees, grapes, strawberries, garden space, large patio, privacy hedge. Situated on a desirable corner lot in a great walking neighborhood, this home is just three houses from a city park with a play structure and outdoor fitness equipment. Located near schools, shopping, dining, and commuter routes. An added bonus-there is no HOA for this home, even though the neighboring community has one. As a unique piece of neighborhood history, the architect who designed the community originally chose to live in this very home!
