Listing broker remarks

Welcome to 279 Caroline Street! This newly renovated 3-bedroom Ranch features a bright, open layout with updates throughout. The kitchen has been completely updated with shaker-style cabinets, quartz countertops, under-cabinet lighting, and a center island for additional prep space and seating. The open design connects the kitchen and living area and makes great use of the space. The updates go well beyond the finishes, with new vinyl replacement windows, new doors, a brand-new heating system, and new water heater. Downstairs, the basement offers high ceilings and plenty of potential for future expansion, whether you're looking for additional living space, a home office, gym, rec room, or extra storage. Modern finishes, major mechanical updates, and room to grow make this home truly move-in ready.— Almeida Premier Realty
