About This Home
As of July 2021"WHEN OUR PARENTS WERE HERE,THIS HOUSE USED TO DANCE." Constant parties, abundant food, entertaining with family and friends best describe the action and activity from this home's heyday. The vibe still emanates from her walls and halls. She is a happy house with GREAT bones that is now part of a family trust and will be sold AS IS. Anything in the home at the time of closing will transfer with it including all appliances. Sited so well on the property, bright sunlight pours in from every angle all day long, even on the darkest days. Rooms are oversized, including the garage which has an extended length and an extra wide asphalt driveway so that it's possible to park three cars side by side. An unbelievable forward thinker, the past owner had a transfer switch installed for a generator to be placed on the deck. In the Master Bedroom an unbelievable dressing suite has exquisite hand crafted built-in cabinetry w/ "his and hers" walk in closets. There is an underground sprinkler system in the yard and masonry stone walls surrounding the driveway that look as beautiful as they did on the day they were built. Love and care and enormous expense built this home and the quality of this build has stood the test of time. Enter this home and you will see more open flow, possibility and flexible space than the street view would have you believe. 8 PORTER DRIVE IS READY TO DANCE AGAIN BUT YOU JUST NEED TO JAZZ IT UP!
