About This Home
As of July 2018The wonderful landscaping & scenery of this home envelopes you as you enter the driveway. With one stall attached garage & a newer two stall building just steps away your vehicles are always close by, with extra room for storage! The fenced in courtyard is reminiscent of back yard barbeques, quiet coffee in the morning & peaceful sunsets surrounded by lush shrubbery and perennials. From the mudroom, enter the updated kitchen overlooking the dining area & family room with wood burning fireplace. Sparkling hardwood floors shine as you journey to the back of the home, with a separate office/den & living room that could also be a bedroom. Beyond the office, the master bedroom awaits with walk in closet, exposed beams, cathedral ceiling & numerous windows providing a bright peaceful space. Want to use this gorgeous room as a family room or additional gathering space? Two additional rooms upstairs could serve as your bedrooms, with build-ins & closets providing ample storage & skylights pouring sunlight in from above, leaving the first floor as a spacious living & entertaining space. On almost an acre, the back yard is a fantastic place to play. The propane powered automatic generator ensures you will never be without power, and the updated windows & metal roof keep the home better insulated and reduce updating costs for years to come. The charming accents, updates and versatile floor plan make this home an absolute gem!
