As of April 2018Rarely does a house like this come on the market. This super clean and extremely well-maintained home boasts nearly 2800 square feet of living space due to the large 2 story addition consisting of a beautiful vaulted ceiling Master Suite complete with a large walk-in closet and a stunning Master Bath with a huge walk-in tiled shower, jetted soaking tub and his and hers vanities ? this Master Suite is sure to impress you (and your friends!). This main level consists of 3 more private bedrooms and TWO more full baths. Down the hall to the front of the house is the living room with a large bay window which flows into the dining room and then the kitchen with rich dark cabinetry, pretty granite counter tops and tiled floors. If you thought that was a lot of house, wait until you go downstairs! The above-grade lower level offers a large family room with wood laminate floors and an eye-catching brick fireplace with a gas fireplace insert to keep you toasty warm in the winter and sliders that lead out to a lovely paver stone patio. Back inside is the laundry room, a bonus room perfect for a hobby room or office, a sunroom/studio surrounded by windows and the perfect man-cave?a 19x11 workshop off the garage that has double doors leading to the back yard for ease of loading and unloading. But the real show-stopper of this property is the back yard! Fully fenced in and private, this yard has lovely landscaping and flowering shrubs that bloom from spring to late fall. Off the dining room are French Doors leading out to a large deck perfect for family bbq's and a big shade tree providing just the right amount of shade and privacy. The deck has stairs leading to the paver patio below. Outside is where you'll want to be all summer long if you're the lucky buyer of this property! There is a large shed too. This home is perfectly located close to 422 and ample shopping yet tucked away in a quiet established neighborhood on a nearly acre lot. 3 yr old roof, water softener and Reverse Osmosis system and security system. The homeowners have lovely cared for this home and are looking for new owners to care for this home as much as they have. Is that you?
