The exterior has been renewed with new cedar siding, new windows, new decking and railings, and a new front door. A new roof, new rain gutters, and Velux skylights with remote-control sun shades improve durability and natural light. Inside, the home has been refreshed with new luxury vinyl plank flooring upstairs, new carpet downstairs, and fully updated bathrooms with new flooring, vanities, toilets, and hardware.
