Luxury living without the HOA fees! This Craftsman-style basement rancher combines timeless design with modern upgrades, all situated on a .91-acre corner lot in the desirable Lakeside Meadows community. Eligible buyers may also take advantage of an assumable VA loan at just 4.65%, a rare opportunity in today's market. The open-concept main level is designed for everyday living as well as entertaining. A tray ceiling and striking floor-to-ceiling brick gas fireplace with shiplap detail create a warm yet elegant focal point in the living room. Just off the foyer, a versatile flex space offers options for a home office, dining room, or study. The gourmet kitchen is a true centerpiece, featuring stainless steel appliances, soft-close cabinetry, and an oversized marble-granite island with generous prep space, storage, and seating. The Owner's Suite is a private retreat with a tray ceiling, spacious walk-in closet, and spa-inspired ensuite complete with dual vanities, tiled shower, and sleek Euro glass door. Two additional bedrooms—each with its own walk-in closet—share a beautifully designed bathroom with dual vanities and a tiled tub/shower combo. A laundry room with built-in cabinetry, utility sink, and included washer and dryer adds everyday convenience. The finished basement provides more than 1,200 square feet of flexible living space, ideal for a media room, in-law suite, or multi-generational living. Built on a poured-wall foundation, this level also includes a covered patio for outdoor enjoyment. The expansive covered porch on the main level offers countryside views with no backyard neighbors, perfect for morning coffee or evening sunsets. Since purchasing, the owner has thoughtfully invested in the home with valuable improvements, including a whole-home Generac generator, installed gas range/oven, and upgraded HVAC system for comfort and efficiency. Additional highlights include a two-car main-level garage, a separate one-car basement garage suitable for a workshop, storage, or boat, a security system, and fresh interior paint.
