About This Home

As of December 2019

One of a kind custom home! Situated on the largest lot in the neighborhood and across from open space, this beautiful home is sure to please! As you pull up to this home you'll notice the 2 tiered landscaping with custom retaining walls. Custom pavers lead to the back. Enter via the 2 story foyer and you'll immediately see the beautiful oak hardwood floors. The formal living room has French doors that lead to the family room. You'll notice the chair rail, crown moldings and custom plantation shutters throughout as you continue through this lovely home. Sliding doors from the formal dining room lead you to a magnificent entertaining space--a custom room with an actual bar with a 2 tap keg of restaurant quality--professionally installed. The maple & copper bar has shelving & hanging glass storage as well as sink. The room has brick walls with custom wainscoting & recessed lighting. You won't see another home with this entertaining space! Continue into the kitchen with lovely 42" maple cabinets and island with granite top. There's also a custom wine rack, ceramic tile backsplash, bread warmer & upgraded stainless steel appliances. Down the hall from the kitchen is an office and a full bath (in case you need to use the office as an extra bedroom!) The laundry room with utility sink has a door leading to the back. There's also a sliding door from the kitchen to the expansive patio with limestone tread steps & built in flower boxes. Upstairs you'll find a large master suite with dual walk in closets, 4 piece master bath & separate sitting room. 3 additional nicely sized bedrooms and another full bath complete the upstairs. The basement has 3 finished rooms (a game room, a play room & an exercise room) as well as plenty of storage space and outside access through the garage. This unique home is only available due to a job transfer. Make this one yours today! *Sellers will repaint bedroom 4 if desired*
