About this home

Beautifully maintained 4-bedroom, 3-bath modified two-story set on a scenic, landscaped lot with peaceful pond/wetland views and no rear neighbors. This home offers the hard-to-find combination of neighborhood convenience and a private backyard setting that feels tucked away. Inside, you’ll find a bright, functional layout with hardwood floors, generous natural light, and comfortable living spaces throughout. The updated kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, tile backsplash, abundant cabinetry, and an informal dining area with direct access to the oversized deck. The upper level includes three bedrooms, newer carpet, and a walk-through primary bath. The walkout lower level adds even more usable space with a large family room, computer/craft area, large workshop, newer carpet, and direct access to the backyard paver patio. Outside is where this home really shines: mature trees, extensive gardens, an inviting front porch, large deck, paver patio, and a backyard overlooking nature and wetlands. Add in the oversized 3-car garage and great curb appeal, and this one checks a lot of boxes without screaming “cookie-cutter.” A clean, comfortable, move-in-ready home with space, updates, and a backyard view that’s tough to beat.

How SODL buyer credits work

When you buy with SODL, the brokerage charges a flat $3,000 platform fee at closing. The remaining buyer-side commission (typically 3% of the purchase price) is credited directly back to you at closing, reducing the cash you bring to the table.

  • Tour homes with SODL’s flexible showing network
  • Submit offers and manage your transaction through the platform
  • Keep more money at closing through transparent flat-fee pricing

A clear, modern way to buy with expert guidance and meaningful savings.
