Welcome to this classic 4-bedroom, 1.5-bath Holiday Split in the heart of popular Heritage Park—a community loved for its charm and convenience.

The home has been expanded with a stunning family room, featuring a large bay window that fills the space with natural light—perfect for entertaining or relaxing. Gleaming hardwood floors run through much of the home, and the open kitchen design is a true highlight with 42-inch oak cabinetry, granite countertops, a travertine tile backsplash, and a custom oak inlay hardwood floor accent. The breakfast bar flows seamlessly into the dining room, making gatherings effortless. Upstairs, the primary bedroom offers two closets, including a walk-in, while the updated hall bath with modern vanity and new flooring serves three comfortable bedrooms. The secondary bedroom even includes a walk-in cedar closet. On the lower level, a flexible 4th bedroom doubles as the ideal home office, positioned right next to the updated half bath. The partially finished basement provides a large open space, laundry/utility area, and plenty of extra storage.

The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
