About This Home
As of September 2020This beautiful home was expanded by a former owner and architect who with the addition of contemporary design elements transformed ordinary to extraordinary! Vast expanses of glass harmoniously integrate interior and exterior spaces for light-infused rooms. The home opens to an attractive back yard, complete with children's tree house and sandbox. The great room features a dining area with dramatic corner window overlooking garden greenery and a fireplace flanked by book/display shelves, and opens to a cheerful sunroom. Sunlight streams through a huge skylight in the recently remodeled kitchen appointed with sleek quartz counters & stainless appliances. There are 3 bedrooms including an owner's suite with convenient built-in furniture and a separate adjoining office, perfect for work-from-home needs. The spa-inspired owner's bathroom is flooded with natural light and features sleek surfaces & stepless shower.
