The spacious primary suite offers dual walk-in closets, double vanities, a relaxing garden tub, and a separate walk-in shower. Recent updates include a newly installed well and brand-new flooring in all bedrooms, adding value and peace of mind for the next owner. Additional features include vaulted ceilings, ceramic tile and laminate flooring throughout the main living areas, an indoor laundry room, ceiling fans, and an attached 2-car garage with extra storage space. Step outside to enjoy the screened rear porch overlooking the fully fenced backyard. The oversized lot provides plenty of room for pets, entertaining, gardening, or future outdoor enhancements. A storage shed is also included for added convenience. For added confidence, prior sinkhole remediation was professionally completed, and the property is backed by a transferable lifetime warranty. Documentation is available for buyer review, providing long-term assurance and peace of mind. Located on a paved road with no HOA and situated in Flood Zone X, this property offers the space, privacy, and flexibility that are becoming increasingly difficult to find.
