As of November 2021Welcome to this well maintained and beautifully updated home situated on a private cul-de-sac lot in popular Norwegian Woods!! Pride of ownership is evident throughout! Enter the home and you’ll be immediately impressed by the two-story foyer, the hardwood flooring, the open and bright floor plan, 9’ ceilings, and loads of crown molding/custom-woodwork. A spacious formal living room flows into the formal dining room which is surrounded with trendy wood paneling and a large picture window overlooking the picturesque backyard. The home’s light and airy eat-in kitchen has so much to offer including white cabinets, hardwood floors, center island, granite counters, tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, walk-in pantry, and new sliding door to the deck/back-yard area. Adjacent to the kitchen is the open & spacious family room with a gas fireplace, flanked with numerous windows providing an abundance of natural light and great backyard views! Finishing off the main floor is an office/study with double glass door, powder room, and the convenience of a back staircase. Upstairs you’ll find a spacious primary bedroom with a double door entry, cathedral ceiling, large window seat, a sitting room, 2 walk-in closets and 5 piece-master bathroom. The second floor also offers 3 additional spacious bedrooms, hall bath, and laundry room. The partially finished basement offers 2 recreation rooms with new carpet (2020), trendy paneled walls, and a large unfinished area with plenty of storage space. And moving on to the backyard oasis…..starting with the beautiful & inviting inground pool, updated composite deck with vinyl railings, retractable awning, fenced yard overlooking the community pond and offers complete privacy (not a neighbor in sight). The perfect spot for your summer entertaining! Lastly, the updates: 33 Windows replaced (2019/2020); Roof (2015); New Front door/new sliding door (2016/2020); Vinyl/insulated siding installed (2020); Deck & railings replaced (2019); Driveway (2020); Water Heater (2019) and so much more!
