MOVE-IN READY & COMPLETELY REMODELED IN GREENTREE-WITH SOUGHT-AFTER CHOICE ZONE HIGH SCHOOLS! Start your day on the charming front patio with brand new brick pavers, paired with a matching walkway-the perfect spot for a quiet morning coffee. Head inside and you're greeted by a welcoming foyer with a large coat closet, setting the tone for the stylish updates that unfold throughout. Fresh paint in today's most popular palette, brand-new luxury vinyl flooring, brand-new plush carpet, designer fixtures, brand new A/C installed July 2025, and remodeled spaces at every turn make this home shine. The sun-filled living room flows seamlessly into the adjoining dining room-an ideal setup for hosting friends or enjoying family dinners. Next, head into the stunning kitchen, where white cabinetry, quartz countertops, a subway tile backsplash, and a center island with breakfast bar seating create a bright and functional hub. Open sightlines into the family room keep conversations going, whether you're prepping meals or keeping an eye on the kids. Unwind in the family room around the striking floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace with raised hearth-perfect for cozy movie nights or game nights. An exterior door opens to a backyard built for outdoor fun, featuring a spacious patio and a full fence for added privacy. Back inside, an updated half bath rounds out the main level. When it's time to call it a night, head upstairs to the primary suite featuring dual closets and a private updated bath. Two additional bedrooms share a second updated full bath with a dual sink vanity and tub/shower combo. The city-loft-inspired basement offers a large rec room for endless possibilities, while the unfinished area provides excellent storage.
