About This Home

As of July 2017

Huge price drop to 475K. Seller says sell! Freshly painted top to bottom! North Star School Feeder! Outstanding curb appeal on this stately Hitchens Farm home ! Priced way below market for a quick sale! Lots of natural light to enjoy in this home as well. Walk through the inviting double doors and past the beautiful marble foyer that leads you into a spacious eat-in kitchen with stunning inlaid hardwood floors, to die for gorgeous! The kitchen offers an island and walk-in pantry. It is spacious enough to please even the most discerning of cooks! A elegant double-sided stone fireplace provides style and heat to both the kitchen and the generous family room. You will certainly enjoy this! Also on the first-floor is a bright formal living room and dining room with lovely wainscoting and bay windows. The 9 foot ceilings on both floors and multiple skylights brighten this home throughout. On the second floor, the master suite positively glows with all the sunlight it receives from its many large windows. The 5 piece master bath is a retreat unto itself with a whirlpool tub, walk-in shower, heat lamps, and two large vanities. The walk-in closet has his and hers areas. Adjacent to the Master bedroom is a bonus area that can be used as an office, workout area or just a space to relax. Two other large bedrooms and a skylight-lit bathroom are down the hall from the master suite and the back two bedrooms are perfect for guests as a door provides suite-like privacy by separating these rooms and their bathroom from the rest of the second floor. In addition, four of the five bedrooms have their own walk-in closets. You'll never lack for storage in this amazing house! Venturing outside, you will admire your level half-acre yard, a rarity this far north! You will enjoy your 2012 Trex composite deck, and a recently landscaped sitting area. The large backyard is also fenced in. An over-sized 2 car garage gives you enough room to park your vehicles with space to spare for your workshop.What else?? Hurry in with your offers!
