Multiple offers received, highest and best due by 7pm tonight (3/15). Looking for a beautifully updated ranch in immaculate condition with an in-law suite, entertainment space, and peaceful water views? This is the perfect opportunity! Enter through the front foyer as natural light fills the open floor plan on the main level with expansive 9 foot ceilings throughout. A gorgeous stone fireplace anchors the living space made for conversation and cozy evenings. The heart of the home is a fully updated kitchen- a striking center island invites gathering, while granite countertops flow into a hammered copper, oil-rubbed bronze extension counter that blends artisan detail with everyday function. A generous walk-in pantry, upgraded stainless steel appliances, and a double oven make meal prep effortless, while a reverse osmosis water system adds an extra layer of convenience. Off of the breakfast nook area, head out the sliding doors to the back deck overlooking the water. The kitchen and living space open up to an added dining area with a built-in wine fridge, dry bar, and an abundance of extra counter/cabinet space. The primary suite has it's own private and fully updated bathroom with stunning finishes attached to a spacious walk-in closet for plenty of storage. Beyond the main floor, the fully finished lower level expands the home's possibilities. A thoughtfully laid out kitchen and full bathroom connected to an oversized bedroom create an ideal in-law suite, multi-generational living space, guest quarters, or rental-ready space which offers privacy without sacrificing connection to the rest of the home. A beautiful slate accent wall with a built-in electric fireplace is another desirable highlight. This is the perfect entertainment area or second living space! The possibilities are endless, including an additional room (mostly finished) that could provide a workshop area or a 5th bedroom space once the rest of the drywall is complete. Plus, there's ample unfinished space behind the second kitchen, ideal for storage or future expansion. Step outside and the property's waterfront setting reveals itself - mornings with relaxing water views, afternoons in the hot tub, gardening in the raised beds, and evenings spent relaxing on the fenced-in patio. Practical updates give you confidence to move in and enjoy: a new roof, irrigation system, and hot water heater are in place, so you can focus on living rather than maintaining. Every detail here balances style and function, from the gourmet updated appliances to the warm finishes, creating a retreat that feels both polished and welcoming. Schedule a showing to experience the thoughtful updates, flexible living spaces, and serene waterfront setting in person.
