POTENTIAL
Whether you’re looking to start a family or looking for your first home, 3261 has so much to offer. As a turnkey residence, new owners can simply move in and enjoy the home as is, stress free. For those in need of even more bedrooms, the garage could easily be converted to a fourth bed and bath or even an inlaw suite with a private entrance. While the backyard is well established, there is plenty of room for a pool and/or jacuzzi without feeling crowded or having to remove any of the lush greenery. The front garden area acts as a playground or a peaceful sitting area for reading or taking in the morning sun.
