About This Home
As of May 2025Welcome to ONE level living in the elusive Idle Hour neighborhood with a circular driveway on a 1/2 acre lot! Per seller, this home was originally a 3 bedroom but owner combined 2 bedrooms to make a large primary suite--perhaps it could be converted back to three bedrooms! This timeless home boasts an eat-in dining area with a huge walk-in pantry, 2 full baths, 2 family rooms (one could be easily be used as another dining area) and a covered patio. The window-filled sunroom overlooks the backyard (1/2 acre) where an in-ground pool once was located. You have to see this backyard to believe it--exudes privacy and space! Selling AS-IS, but inspections welcome.
