About This Home
This spacious and well constructed home has only had two owners, from two generations of the original family that custom built it in 1976. Long lasting and well maintained original features combined with tasteful updates, this reliable, move-in ready home is set to become a special place to the future generations of its next family. Features include a clean and well maintained kitchen with custom built oak cabinets for plenty of storage and counter space, and a large and open formal dining room with a built-in buffet station. The dining room opens out to an impressive vaulted and enclosed 3-4 seasons patio area overlooking private views of green grass and trees--the perfect spot for starting the day with a morning cup of coffee, or winding down the evening with your favorite beverage. The main floor living room provides plenty of space for your furniture arrangements, and welcomes the natural light through the large bank of corner windows. This home has a main floor primary bedroom with an ensuite primary bathroom and shower, as well as 2 secondary main floor bedrooms and a full bath in the hallway. Main floor washer and dryer hookups near the garage entry allow for laundry work on the main level, and the large 3/4 bathroom and laundry space in the basement provides secondary accommodations for cleaning body and clothes. This home offers spacious and wide open basement areas, and a non-conforming basement bedroom with a framed closet and two daylight windows that could rather easily be modified to create legal egress windows for an additional, conforming 4th bedroom with plenty of daylight. And did someone say they need storage space? Well this house has plenty of it. Lots of closet storage on the main floor, loads of basement shelving spaces, and a sizable 2 car garage provide ample storage space for a variety of goods, and the garden shed in the back yard will accommodate all your lawn and garden gear. Don't miss this opportunity to discover all the benefits of living the good life in rural Story County!
