About This Home

As of August 2024

THE OPEN HOUSE ON AUGUST 4, 2024, IS CANCELED.
Welcome to this stunning 2-story, 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath twin home located on a quiet, no-traffic street in the charming Pike Creek neighborhood. Surrounded by parks and trees, this serene location offers a peaceful setting with no through traffic. Enjoy the tranquility of the area, where the only sounds are the symphony of birdsong and the soft rustling of rabbits grazing. The location is unbeatable, facing beautiful trees rather than houses, providing a picturesque and tranquil backdrop. Well-maintained, this residence exudes timeless appeal and offers a spacious layout designed for both comfort and functionality, with gorgeous views of the trees from every level of the home.
Step inside to discover a spacious and inviting living area that flows effortlessly into the dining room and a chef's kitchen. The kitchen is fully equipped with nice appliances, great cabinetry, granite countertops, and recessed lighting. Hardwood floors run throughout most of the home, enhancing its warmth and elegance. Neutral paint colors complement the granite countertops and stylish cabinetry in the kitchen.
The second floor offers comfortable living spaces for the entire family, featuring three bedrooms with ample closet space and two full bathrooms. The lower level provides extra living space, perfect for a home office, gym, or media room, offering endless possibilities for entertaining.
Outside, enjoy the privacy of your own fenced backyard, an ideal space for outdoor gatherings or simply unwinding after a long day. The backyard features beautiful stonework, a small garden area, and ample space for recreation. Imagine relaxing under the stars with ambient lighting, creating a perfect setting for evening get-togethers.
Some furniture is included with the house, but the seller will decide which items to take before settlement.
This home is conveniently located within walking distance to the nearby White Clay Creek State Park, offering plenty of outdoor activities. It’s just a few minutes' drive to Zingo, Pike Creek Acme, Rt. 72, and Kirkwood Highway, where you’ll find numerous shops and restaurants. The Carousel Park and Equestrian Center, a beautiful 200+ acre park, is just a 5-7 minute drive from the house. The park features a beautiful lake with numerous walking trails. It's a favorite place for dogs to swim in the lake and chase the ducks and geese.
Experience the best of Pike Creek living in this well-maintained, beautifully located home.
Don’t miss the opportunity to make this inviting home yours!
The house is being sold as-is. The seller will not make any repairs.
