The kitchen is striking and highly functional, appointed with Carrera marblestyle quartz countertops and a full quartz backsplash, premium Caf appliances, and a sought after two drawer dishwasher. Soft close cabinetry, pullout pantry shelving, and a spacious indoor laundry room reflect the homes attention to detail and livability. Architectural upgrades include shaker style interior doors with new hardware, magnetic door stops and carefully placed recessed lighting that enhances flow and ambiance. Significant capital improvements provide confidence and peace of mind, including a new roof (2022), hurricane rated impact windows (2024), updated interior and exterior lighting, and two newly enclosed garages (2025). The home was fully replumbed in 2006. Outdoors, a private patio and fully fenced backyard offer ample space to create a custom pool or serene garden retreat. River Forests optional civic association maintains the neighborhood park, pond, entrance and access to Phillippi Creek, an understated yet valuable amenity. A home that feels complete, considered, and quietly exceptional, ready to welcome you home.
