About This Home
As of December 2017Beautiful 3-story townhouse in Market Common one mile to the beach and within walking distance to the shops, restaurants, movies, walking/biking trails where carefree living is the operative lifestyle. As you enter the home you are greeted by a warm and inviting foyer with an artist studio that can be converted to a 3rd bedroom with a powder room around the corner. As you ascend the stairs the beautiful living room and kitchen will elevate your mood as you arrive at your relaxing space to unwind. Sellers have installed a new wood floor in the 16'x16' living room that accents the entire room along with the palladium windows and plantation shutters. The kitchen has been dressed out in new porcelain 24"x 24" tile and new glass cabinets have been added to the butler pantry. Rev-a-shelf pull outs installed in the cabinets for ease of storage and new plantation shutters and the 3 windows sun drench the kitchen. Stainless appliances, granite counters, center island and a double pantry all add to the beauty of this important gathering & cooking space. The Travertine back splash is very pretty and a brand new refrigerator is being conveyed with the sale. Set back from the kitchen is an attractive powder room with a lovely wood vanity. Two large bedrooms are featured on the third floor each offering private baths, and ample closet space and carpet flooring. Bathrooms all are tiled and come complete with matching medicine cabinets. Laundry facilities are tucked in a large closet with plenty of cabinets located on the the third floor for much convenience. Pull down attic with stairs makes it easy to change the 3rd floor air handler annual change out filter. Seller installed 2 new heat pumps and air handlers (3 ton each) in November 2016 so no worries for the new buyer. There are 3 separate elevator shafts present measuring approximately 5'x4' that the sellers use creatively: ham radio shack, linen closet and an office. Should the buyer ever want to install an elevator, everything is there including the electrical wiring in the garage. Speaking of garage, the entire garage floor (19'8" by 15'9") has been tiled with H5 rating porcelain tile. There is so much more to share about this exciting and beautiful home that you have to see to believe. The fantastic location and great value cannot be missed here at 861 Murray Avenue.
