Property Description
Welcome to Twin Oaks West! Nestled in one of the area's most established and friendly neighborhoods, this beautifully maintained two-story home offers timeless charm, thoughtful updates, and an exceptional backyard retreat. From the inviting front porch to the professionally landscaped corner lot, every detail reflects pride of ownership. The fenced backyard is your own private oasis, featuring a swimming pool surrounded by lush, meticulously designed landscaping with colorful perennials, ornamental plantings, and mature greenery that create beauty and privacy throughout the seasons. Step inside to find hardwood floors flowing throughout most of the main level, including the foyer, living room, dining room, family room, and stunning remodeled kitchen. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, the kitchen showcases white cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and an impressive 7' x 7' center island with contrasting dark cabinetry, abundant storage, and a deep sink. The open-concept layout allows the kitchen to seamlessly overlook the spacious family room, highlighted by a beautifully resurfaced fireplace. Sliding glass doors provide easy access to the patio and pool, creating the perfect indoor-outdoor living experience. Just off the kitchen is a convenient mudroom/laundry room, powder room, garage access, and an exceptional four-season sunroom addition. This inviting space features radiant heated tile floors, and cooling system, a dramatic tray ceiling, custom windows, and French doors-making it the perfect place to relax year-round. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite offers hardwood flooring, plantation shutters, a walk-in closet, and a beautifully remodeled ensuite bath complete with a soaking tub and separate shower. Three additional generously sized bedrooms all feature hardwood floors and share an updated hall bath with an extended vanity and tiled tub/shower combination. The partial basement offers additional living potential with finished drywall and trim already completed-simply add flooring to create even more finished space. A large crawl space provides abundant storage. Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated over the years, this home perfectly balances spaciousness with warmth and comfort. Located in the highly desirable Twin Oaks West subdivision, where mature trees, welcoming neighbors, and a true sense of community make this a wonderful place to call home.
