About This Home

As of June 2019

This is an amazing ranch with a walkout basement! It has lots of character of an older home and sits in a quiet area and backs upto a field that is outside of Christmas Lake Village. Walk into the house and admire the Spanish hickory wood floors, stone wood burning fireplace, and lovely space between the living and dining room that are very open for entertainment. As you leave the dining room you will be wowed by this incredible open kitchen with a island covered in Golden Ray Carnival granite. The kitchen features honey oak cabinets, Black Pearl granite on the surrounding counters, newer appliances, eat in kitchen, and a bar to eat for extra entertaining space. It is nice and bright with canned lighting through the kitchen. The flooring is tile in the kitchen. Travel down the hallway and you will enter the master bedroom on the left with a large walk-in closet and bathroom to the right. Across the hall is another spacious bedroom and a walk-in closet and a bathroom shared by the main floor. The bathroom has a nice soak tub. The basement is amazing in this house. It is all very open and has lots of uses. The one side has a build in bar with a refrigerator that is included and laminate flooring. The third bedroom is in the basement but is very spacious at 12x22 in size and has an attached bathroom for use by bedroom and the main use for basement. There is also unfinished area that is available for extra storage. The exterior of this home is so peaceful. The upstairs has all composite decking and aluminum rails and beneath the deck has under decking drainage system to keep the patio below dry. The yard is shaded with trees and has a great feel. The furnace was replaced in 2008. The roof was replaced in 2001. Freshly painted in 2013. Pella Windows throughout the house. The house has a unique garage in that it is a two car garage but is deep versus wide.
