What's Inside: A Thoughtfully Renovated Home on Three Levels
The 2025 renovation at 3404 Lancer Drive goes well beyond cosmetic updates. New luxury vinyl plank flooring runs through all three levels, paired with updated fixtures and finishes that feel contemporary without being trendy.
Main Floor
The main level opens into a sun-filled living room anchored by an electric fireplace, with a formal dining room and two bedrooms. The kitchen has been completely redone with quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances. Off the kitchen, a sunroom looks out over a private, tree-lined backyard — the kind of space that makes a house feel like a home.
Upper Level
Upstairs, a versatile loft-style living area and a private third bedroom offer flexibility that's hard to find at this price point — whether you need a home office, a guest suite, or a dedicated creative space.
Finished Basement
The fully finished basement is a major value-add. It includes a large family room, a full bathroom, the fourth bedroom, a roughed-in kitchenette space, and walk-up stairs to the backyard. Whether you're thinking in-law suite, rental income potential, or just extra room to spread out, this level delivers. A new roof, gutters, and siding were installed in 2024.
