## Description

### Agent Description
Step inside this well-maintained townhouse where thoughtful updates and comfortable living come together. The home welcomes you with a spacious vaulted living room that flows naturally into the dining area and updated kitchen. The kitchen features quartz countertops, providing a modern look with durable workspace for everyday living and entertaining. The primary bedroom offers a tray ceiling, creating a relaxing retreat, while the guest bedroom is filled with natural light and vaulted ceilings, adding charm and openness to the space. Several major upgrades provide peace of mind, including a new furnace and A/C installed in February 2023 paired with a Sensi smart thermostat, plus new siding and a new roof installed in 2022. Additional privacy and sound reduction were added with a 24' x 8' layer of 5/8" sound barrier drywall installed with Green Glue along the shared living and dining room wall. Outdoor living has been expanded with a 28' x 12' concrete patio added in June 2024, topped with a polycarbonate patio roof installed in September 2025, creating a great space to relax or entertain. A 7-foot white vinyl privacy fence installed in November 2023 adds separation between townhomes. Best of all, there is no HOA. The basement offers future finishing potential with spray-foamed rim joists, insulated exterior basement walls with moisture barrier and framing (2026), and a toilet added in 2025. A home that combines modern updates, efficiency, and room to grow.
