•••••Imagine pulling into your driveway and knowing you’ve found the place where you will grow, laugh, and make lifelong memories. This warm and welcoming 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom raised ranch sits on a beautiful, level 0.70-acre lot in a friendly Valley Cottage neighborhood — and the elementary, middle, and high school bus stops right at the end of your driveway.
Step inside and you’ll immediately feel the comfort. The entire home has been freshly painted in 2026 with new LED lighting throughout and beautiful hardwood floors that glow underfoot. Upstairs, the open-concept living room, dining area, and kitchen create the heart of the home — perfect for homework at the breakfast bar while you cook dinner, or holiday meals with grandparents.
•••••The chef’s kitchen (just 3 years young) is every parent’s dream: quartz countertops, tall cabinets with tons of storage, stainless steel appliances, garbage disposal system, a big skylight, and sliders that open to a large, newly restored two-tier deck. Morning coffee with the birds, evening barbecues, or weekend dinners outside — this space makes it effortless and joyful.
Just down the hall you’ll find the primary suite with new floors and a beautifully updated bathroom, plus two additional bedrooms with spacious closets. Downstairs, the bright Family Room with its cozy wood-burning fireplace is ideal for movie nights, fort building, or simply unwinding together after a busy day. Two more bedrooms and another full bath with quartz counters give you flexible space — whether it’s for growing kids, visiting grandparents, a playroom, or a quiet home office.
•••••Outside, the entire manicured grounds are professionally managed and cared for, with 6-zone underground sprinklers in the front. The private, landscaped backyard is ready for soccer games, trampolines, snow forts, or summer campouts. The attached garage and oversized driveway offer plenty of parking for bikes, scooters, and cars.
This home is move-in ready with thoughtful touches that busy people appreciate — an in-law/guest suite layout, abundant storage, energy-efficient features, and a location that makes daily life smoother.
