About This Home

As of May 2022

Highest/Best offers due Monday, 3/7, by 5pm. Tucked away on a peaceful cul de sac yet minutes to daily needs, this thoughtfully renovated and meticulously maintained Montgomery home offers 21st Century ease, appeal, and options to keep up with our evolving lives.
Everything about this 3BR/3BA home has function and aesthetic in mind, from the welcoming front Foyer with soaring ceiling, to the sun-soaked kitchen with large center island, Breakfast Room, gas fireplace, and green and serene views of the rear yard. The well-proportioned Dining Room and generously sized Great Room with bay window and a 2nd fireplace are ideal for daily enjoyment or grand entertaining!
This home provides two bed and bath suites: a first-floor bedroom with a full-bath room and walk-in closet, and a second, larger and lavish Primary suite upstairs.
Office area abounds with 3 dedicated quarters for work, school, projects, or perhaps overnight guests.
The finished basement offers a large Game Room (Pool Table included,) an exercise area, laundry/pantry room, a dedicated workshop and 2 huge walk-in closets for plentiful storage.
Warmer weather is on the way - relax and enjoy the enormous TimberTech deck offering tree-house views of the park-like rear yard!
Two car garage has a dedicated extra half-bay of additional storage space.
Other pleasing and practical attributes: nearly-new roof, wood floors, crown moldings, multiple skylights, cedar closet, built-in speakers, at-the-ready generator hookup, and cozy outdoor fire pit enclosure.
With plenty of space for people, passions, occasions, and celebrations, this home is a trifecta of exceptional lifestyle, convenience, and value.
