About This Home

As of August 2020

A powder room is conveniently located in the foyer, and the living room makes a lovely entry to the home.

An open area for dining and family room makes this floorplan work for everyday living or entertaining. Plenty of room for social distancing inside and out on the large deck or lower level patio! The lower level features a spacious recreation room with a walkout exit to the patio and yard. A private home office, with internet port and space for at least two large corner desks, is perfect for today's virtual world. When you're ready to escape from it all, the spacious owner's suite on the upper level features a soaking tub with calming view of trees. Double vanities and a private shower/water closet keep the morning rush to a minimum. A generous walk-in closet means a place for everything! Two additional bedrooms, hall bath, and laundry room upstairs (where the laundry is generated!) complete the upper level. Linton at Ballenger community offers several tot lots, clubhouse with fitness center and pool. Close to transportation and commuter routes, you will enjoy this home and neighborhood for years to come!
