About This Home
As of December 2024Best Of The Best! As seen in 2015 Parade of homes for best kitchen! 4 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath completely renovated home in Wilson Schools. Gorgeous and clean. New Hardwood Floors Throughout first floor. The previous segmented floor plan was completely opened up into an efficient use of space as we see on HGTV. This allowed kitchen to double in size as compared to other Drexelwood homes. Kitchen opens to a spacious dining area. Double doors and cat 5 wiring were added to the separate living room, great as a home office, playroom, living room, or a formal dining room. A large full wash room added with plenty of storage cabinets, plus a new much larger 1/2 bath on first floor. Every sq. ft is frequently used square footage, no wasted space! Kitchen delivers high-end Bosch appliances, Cambria quartz non-staining countertops, soft-close cabinets, pull out drawers in all kitchen cabinets, propane gas cooking, propane fireplace with auto temp sensor. Additional glass beverage fridge in kitchen. Recessed lighting with dimmers throughout home. Over $10,000 of electric upgrades (new sub-panel to accommodate all the extra lighting added) Upstairs has new stainmaster carpet, ceiling fans added in all bedrooms, and recessed lights added throughout home. A beautiful paver patio and entry walk were hardscaped, and landscaping completed providing privacy for back yard. The enclosed screen porch completely rebuilt and maintenance-free. Siding, and roof were replaced last year (50 year roof shingles) A high quality remodel and intended to be the long term home for the owners (Not a cheaply renovated flip house). It's a one-of-a-kind home in a great central Wilson schools location. You must see it!
