As you enter the home through the foyer, the house opens into the living room and formal dining room, boasting 9 ft. cathedral ceilings and new subflooring and flooring, which flows throughout the hallways, dining room, kitchen and mudroom. The original owners added a 2-ft bump out, expanding the size of the kitchen and complimentary mud room. Newer stainless steel appliances and granite countertops grace the open-concept kitchen. Next to the kitchen is the mud room, which includes a high end washer and dryer, along with plenty of storage space. The living room leads to a 16 x 12 screened in porch with views of a fenced in, meticulously landscaped backyard. The enormous master bedroom comes with lots of closet space and a master bath, accompanied by double vanities and stall shower/tub. 3 nice sized additional bedrooms are also on the main floor, along with a full bath. The finished basement includes a media room (45 x 17), office (10 x 11), work-out room (8 x 9) and potential fifth bedroom (10 x 12), complete with a walk-in closet (6 x 7). A full bath is also located in the finished basement as well! In addition, you will find a (15 x 11) storage room and coded egress! The expanded 2-car garage has plenty of storage space with built in shelving throughout. Detailed landscaping wraps around all 4-sides of the home. Fresh paint on the main floor (August/2020), HVAC (2019), subflooring and flooring on the main level (2019), asphalt driveway (2018), and stainless steel appliances (2016) are recent upgrades.
