About This Home

As of September 2021

Custom built by Award Winning Builder Michael J Murphy (also owner)! Strategically placed on this FLAT, just over 1 acre lot in N. Middletown Township providing both larger front and rear yard, backing up to the church's rarely used playground. Plenty of parking with a 2 car attached garage and multiple pull ins for guests. Enter through the front porch with hardwoods under toe for most of the first floor (carpet in the Living room/office). 2 story foyer and custom millwork abound. To the left, a powder room, to the right a formal living room, kids room, or office. Hall to the garage inclusive of dual coat closets, and side entry (to exterior) with custom built ins for hanging clothes, school/work bags, and housing your shoes. (there garage entrance is on the opposite wall of the hallway) The rear of the home is a generous sized family room with ceiling fan and gas fireplace (with blower) flanked by windows. More windows on the North side make this a sun filled room (never too much as this is a South facing home!). The kitchen was thoughtfully designed. Extensive counter space, 2 peninsulas, and a bank of cabinets. Gas cooking (and heating of course), large stainless steel sink, and custom cabinets (lots and lots)! Bumped out the rear of the home is a sun filled breakfast room with windows and the exit to a concrete patio with 1/2 wall...great for BBQ's and quiet evenings in your back yard. The Dining room is on the West side, with ample windows and continued custom builder millwork. The Dining room is open to the living room at the front of the home. Upstairs find 3 nice sized bedrooms all with a full, hall bath. Plus, the Owner suite inclusive of a large walk in closet, expansive sitting room (use as such, as an office, or expand your closet!). This room also provides 2 storage closets great for decorations, seasonal clothes, or suitcases, and even has a window. Tray ceiling and owners bath with jetted tub, large tiled shower, double sinks, linen closet and heated floor. All bedrooms either have, or are wired for fans. The light filled laundry room with expanded space, shelves, and wash tub complete this floor. The basement is nearly all finished. It has a powder room, storage area, and is a walk up. Full bar with sink. The current owner uses the middle/back area as a home theatre (equipment not included), and part of the basement as his office. Most of this home has been repainted and is ready for your personal touches.
