About This Home
As of October 2024Welcome to 1300 Whitfield Blvd, located in the heart of Whitfield, Spring Township and in the highly-acclaimed Wilson School District. This is a beautiful home, where comfort and convenience converge. Meticulously cared-for, offering the perfect blend of space and warmth. Whether you need a dedicated home office, guest room, or playroom, the home’s 4-bedrooms provide lots of flexibility, while its two-recently renovated full-baths and convenient half-bath mean no more morning traffic jams.
As you enter, you’re welcomed into a bright, spacious foyer, with loads of closet space. Next, the family room, large and comfortable, with sliding-glass doors onto the covered rear-patio. The family room is highlighted by an gas-burning fireplace for those chilly autumn evenings, built-ins, and its conveniently-located laundry. A half-bath rounds out this floor.
Living and dining rooms and kitchen are bright and airy, decorated in neutral tones, with tons of natural sunlight, creating an inviting ambiance. Hardwood flooring in both the living and dining rooms has been beautifully refinished in 2020, along with all hardwood flooring throughout the home. From crown moldings to hardwood floors, this home exudes character. The kitchen was totally renovated in 2020 with new flooring, cabinetry, granite countertops and lighting and features gas-cooking and all stainless-steel appliances. It’s gorgeous, crisp, and clean. The dining room’s sliding-glass door leads to the elevated deck, a lovely space for outdoor entertaining or just chilling.
The next level are three of the home’s four bedrooms, nicely-sized with ample closet space and serviced by one of the home’s two full-baths. Both full-baths have been recently renovated.
The uppermost-level is used as the primary bedroom, large and airy. With its angular roof lines, loads of closet space, natural light, and privacy. This is the space the homeowners have loved over the years. Of course, this fourth bedroom features its own newly-renovated full-bath.
Mechanically, most systems have been replaced within the past few years including a recently installed furnace w/humidifier, water heater and water softener. A new air-conditioning unit was installed a few years ago.
Outside, the home has been lovingly landscaped with trees, bushes, and such. In the rear is your serene escape to lovely hardscaping along with a tranquil, illuminated water feature. To the side of the home, a newly-installed privacy fence adds to its intimacy.
This home is immaculate, located in a wonderful community with friendly neighbors, tree-lined streets, and community events that make this area feel like home. Easy access to parks, award-winning schools, churches, shopping, etc. Call today for your private showing!
