This sprawling approximately 3,400-square-foot ranch-style home is situated on nearly one acre in the coveted Eastwood community.

Inside, the spacious and versatile floor plan is well suited for both everyday living and entertaining. Multiple living areas flow throughout the home, highlighted by an impressive four-season room with vaulted ceilings aabundant natural light. A secondary family room with a wood-burning fireplace provides a comfortable gathering space, while additional flexible rooms can accommodate a home office, media room, playroom, or additional sleeping space. The oversized primary suite encompasses nearly 500 square feet and is privately positioned away from the secondary bedrooms. It features multiple closets, a spacious en suite bathroom, and direct access to the backyard. Two additional bedrooms and full bathrooms provide comfortable accommodations for family and guests.
