About This Home

As of January 2018

In a delightfully scenic setting, set back from the road behind a canopy of trees, this lovely Ranch-style home is bright and breezy with an open-concept floor plan. Overlooking the family, dining and living rooms, the home cook will appreciate accessibility to entertaining rooms while preparing meals in the kitchen. The family room is filled with light and warmed by a brick fireplace. Sliders from here extend to both a pool and deck. The adjacent living room offers additional views of both foliage and nature to the rear of the property. Bathrooms are found on each end of the house, one in the bedroom wing to support two ancillary bedrooms, one in the master suite with its own private deck, and the a half bath near the mudroom, 2-car garage and the partially finished basement. Here find an extra deep space, providing extra height for the rec/play room, home office, exercise area, all awaiting further finishes plus tons of useful storage with more in the attached garage. Since the current owner has not had the inground pool opened in approximately 4 years, a credit of $3,000 will be given at closing.
