About This Home

As of May 2024

Spectacular stone split level that backs up to woods. Let's talk curb appeal! This beautiful home sits on a really nice corner lot in the cute enclave of homes called Mary Wood. This is a very private location but still close to everything that St Lawrence and Exeter have to offer. The home features a huge living room, a dining room with tile floor and large kitchen on the main level. Gorgeous bow window in the front and lots of natural light throughout. All windows replaced in summer of 2020! Spacious eat-in kitchen with all appliances. The best access to the rear entertaining area is through the kitchen or dining room but more on that later. There are 4 spacious bedrooms on the upper level. Plus an ensuite bath and a full hall bath. This home actually has two family rooms on the lower level! Lots of space for everyone in this home. There are so many areas in this home that you can all be together or find a nice quiet spot to get away. The front family room is huge and features a wet bar and really nice stone fireplace with wood stove. The 2nd family room features a tile floor as well as a 3rd full bathroom. The laundry is located conveniently off this room and also serves as a large pantry for extra kitchen storage. A neat item off of this room is a 'secret' private patio. There is still more space in the lower level for storage and includes a workbench. Truly a spectacular and well-maintained house. The home does need some updating but the bones are here for your true dream home. The home is situated on a huge lot and starts with a ton of really nice retaining walls and landscaping. There is a large side yard as well as a brick paver are that also serves as a basketball court. The rear entertaining area is a true paradise. Large patio area with a full awning across the rear. Yes, there's an inground pool! The photos don't do it justice! The rear area features an outdoor kitchen area and a shed for all the pool equipment. They just added a new small shed to house the pool filtering equipment. The yard and pool are fenced in for safety and privacy. I mentioned the rear woods and privacy but it's worth touching on again. VERY private rear area. The home also has a storage shed and 2-car attached heated garage. Roofs new in 2015, gutter guard all the way around. Mid Atlantic waterproofing installed around the basement perimeter with 2 sump pumps for water control. The heat is economical gas and feature 3 zones. The kitchen and 2nd floor feature central air and the rest of the home is served by a few wall units. The wall unit in the living room is also a heat pump to use in spring and fall before you need the full furnace. As I mentioned, so much to offer. This home also has a generator, water softener, includes all appliances, (almost new washer and dryer!) and the exterior of the home was recently painted. Are you ready to make this entertaining paradise your next home?
