Why this home stands out
What sets 3232 Shadyside Lane apart is the combination of lot size and livable square footage that's harder to find in newer construction. At 0.273 acres, the yard has real depth — room for a garden, a playset, or just open space. Inside, 2,426 square feet across four bedrooms means everyone gets their own corner. The 1978 build era brought solid bones and traditional floor plans that hold up well for modern family life.
