Welcome to a standout Prairie Ridge townhome-this one-level end-unit is anything but typical for the neighborhood. Featuring 2 bedrooms, 2.1 baths, and countless custom upgrades, this move-in-ready home is full of charm and functionality. Step inside to vinyl plank flooring and solid six-panel oak doors throughout. A wide hallway leads to the living room, where large windows showcase peaceful backyard views. A cozy gas fireplace with custom stone surround is the focal point, and a custom wood-framed pass-through to the kitchen (with ambient lighting) adds warmth and character. The adjacent dining area overlooks the deck and features a built-in buffet with a quartz countertop that matches the beautifully updated kitchen. The kitchen is a showstopper: quartz counters, newer stainless steel appliances, custom lighting, a breakfast bar, and a large pantry make it perfect for everyday living or entertaining. Just off the kitchen is a laundry room with a pocket door for privacy. And wait until you see the garage-epoxy floors, granite bar area, painted walls, fan, and a Lifestyle screen turn this space into a true "man cave" or seasonal hangout spot. The first-floor primary suite features a stylish shiplap accent wall, room for a king-sized bed, great natural light, a walk-in closet with built-ins, and an ensuite with double vanities, quartz counters, a walk-in shower, and updated lighting. The second bedroom doubles as a home office with a custom granite desk and a queen-sized Murphy bed that stays. Great for those who work from home. Downstairs, the quasi-finished basement offers even more living space. One side serves as a rec/family room, while the other is set up with a full bar, mini-dance floor, and wall-mounted table-perfect for entertaining. There's also a bonus room (currently used as a bedroom), a half bath, and plenty of storage. Outside, enjoy a private deck surrounded by mature perennials. HOA takes care of snow and lawn maintenance-easy living! Recent updates include: shiplap wall (2021), washer/dryer (2022), belt-drive garage opener (2023), vinyl plank flooring, Lifestyle garage screen, and new A/C (2024). A 14-month home warranty is included. Great location near schools, shopping, restaurants, medical facilities, and easy access to Route 23 and Plank Road. Come see this unique, upgraded gem-you won't be disappointed!
