Inside, major systems have been smartly upgraded: new air conditioner for the first floor, a new furnace, and new water heaters, You'll also appreciate the modern electrical panel with built-in surge protection, GFCI breakers, and a portable generator switch panel for customized backup power.

Practical touches like a new garage door motor, alarm system with video doorbell, and updated basement security keypad lock complete the picture of a home that's been lovingly maintained and intelligently improved.
