About This Home
As of September 2024Charming Mountainside Retreat Tucked away on the mountainside is a charming, 2.5-story character home in great condition with curb appeal enhanced by multiple stone walls and beautiful landscaping. Head up the driveway to the wrap around covered front porch with Trex decking to enjoy a nice perched view of the street and homes below. Through the front entry, you’re greeted by the lovely dining room with quality hardwood flooring that also flows into the cozy living room kept comfortable by a ceiling fan. The awesome kitchen and breakfast area is the home’s central hub with a large two-tiered center island with high seating, barn wood ceilings, awesome stone walk-in fireplace with gas insert and wood mantle, and sliding glass door to the back patio. The chef will also love the kitchen’s stainless steel appliances, including a gas range and wall oven, soapstone farm sink surrounded by Quartz countertops, built-in shelving, tile flooring, and pantry. Upstairs in the main bedroom, the head of the home can enjoy hardwood flooring, nice closet space, and a ceiling fan, while the secondary bedroom enjoys many of the same features. A shared full bath down the hall offers marble tile floors and a tub shower, while up one more level, a 3rd bedroom and bonus loft area both have neutral carpeting and angled walls. The unfinished lower level provides plenty of storage space and laundry area, while housing great utilities like 100 amp service, electric hot water, all-new electric and plumbing, generator hook up, and more. Outside, you can enjoy lazy summers on the stone paver patio, overlooking the extensive yard or step down to the lower level enclosed by a great stone wall for a soak in the hot tub.
