About This Home
As of November 2023You don't want to miss this extraordinary home in Sterling on the Lake! It features 6 bedrooms, 5.5 baths, has an elegant 3-side brick exterior, and sits prettily on a corner lot. The beautifully landscaped yard zings with curb appeal, and the covered front porch capitvates right away. The tasteful, two-story foyer ivites you in and leads to both formal dining and living rooms. The great room is a delight with a masonry fireplace and lovely, white built-in cabinets. The kitchen is big and wonderful with a generous island, double wall ovens, stainless appliances, a gas cooktop, lots of cabinet space, and a bay-windowed breakfast area. Off the kitchen you'll find a keeping room to keep as such, or utilize as an office, playroom, or home-school space. The main level also offers a guest bedroom with a private, ensuite bath. Upstairs, you'll find a secondary bedroom with an ensuite bath, 2 additioal bedrooms sharing a Jack and Jill bath, and an incredible, multi-level Master suite, very charming as well as very spacious, a true retreat. The master bath is spa-like with a jetted tub, separate tiled shower, two individual vanities, and a generously sized walk-in closet. The finished terrace level does not disappoint with high ceilings, a family room, media room, bedroom and full bath, a kitchenette, a bonus laundry closet, and lots of additional storage space. The level backyard is private and fenced and features a large back deck for grilling and chilling. The side-entry, 3 car garage has room for a third vehicle, golf cart, or storage. You might want to invest in a golf cart to easily explore the phenomenal, "Lifestyles Community" that is Sterling on the Lake. Where else can you find 5 community pools, a 45-acre lake, nature trails, 3 tennis courts, a basketball court, multiple playgrounds, a workout facility, firepit areas, a clubhouse, and even a library with a cafe ? Wouldn't it be lovely to live here?
