Listen, I know what you are thinking...You have always wanted a 3-story townhome. A place that offers space, utility, comfort, beauty and peace spread across 3 levels to give each area it's own vibe. As you cross the threshold you will be amazed at just how much home fits into this lovely end-unit townhome. The main living area includes an expansive eat-in kitchen with a generous island. The kitchen flows into the living room creating a chill environment for entertaining or simply relaxing while you soak in the sunlight streaming through the many windows. With so many people working from home these days, the private office at the back of the home, closed off by French doors is the perfect place to be productive. Before you head upstairs don't forget to check out the ground level bedroom just off of the garage. With its own private entrance, sliding doors to a covered patio, full bathroom and two closets, this space has numerous possibilities; in-law suite, hobby room, 2nd office, game room or simply a 4th bedroom. The upper level of the home features three bedrooms and has a calm vibe of it's own. The primary bedroom is an absolute delight, craftily snuck away to give a little serenity to the owners. It's somehow cozy and spacious at the same time, loaded with natural light, it includes a huge WIC and a spacious ensuite bathroom. Something I know you will just adore, is the garden, that's right a townhouse with raised beds! Currently growing some sweet flowers, delicious tomatoes, and fresh herbs. While you work in your garden, or drink some tea on your back deck you will get to enjoy looking over the beautiful greenspace behind your home, you may even glimpse some wildlife. While this home will make you feel special all on its own, the maintenance-free HOA lets you rest easy in the knowledge that your house will always be looking its best. The home isn't the only gem here, the community is a diamond, featuring an indoor and outdoor pool, pickleball courts, fitness center, clubhouse, dog-parks, playgrounds, various sport courts/fields and more. There are so many awesome places in this home & neighborhood, it will be hard to choose your favorite.
