Perfect Flow For Entertaining
When immaculate interior spaces, a lovely setting and prime location top your list, this engaging split level steps forward. Resting on .4 acres of property, majestic hardwoods and mature shrubbery artfully frame the exterior. Now step inside.
You cross the threshold into a foyer with convenient guest closet, stairs to the upper levels and open access to the living room. The living room spills into the formal dining room creating great space for entertaining. A front bay window welcomes the sunlight, as polished hardwood floors travel underfoot. Renovated and updated to perfection, there is a country kitchen feel that blends beauty and function together with great success. White cabinets are topped with granite counters giving way to a tile backsplash. The center island sits beneath a pendant light and includes a dual undermount sink and dishwasher. Above the cooktop is an integrated exhaust hood, while wall ovens and the refrigerator are nearby. A wall of pantry closets provide excellent storage. Adjoining the kitchen is the breakfast area featuring a bow window and sliders to the deck. A few steps down from the kitchen take you to the family room. There is a door to the backyard, a powder room and entry to the 2-car garage. A few steps down from ground level leads to the lower level where you find the laundry room and utility/storage room.
With Space And Comfort For Everyone
Three bedrooms and two full baths are located on the second level and on the third level is the fourth bedroom, a large walk-in closet and attic access. The master bedroom includes a walk-in closet and full master bath. The family bedrooms all face the front of the house and feature dormer windows and ample closet storage. The hall bath comes well equipped to help everyone through the daily rush.
This lovely setting will bring you outdoors at every opportunity. The deck easily welcomes al fresco dining and relaxation. Beyond the deck, the backyard is open and spacious. Bordered by light wood, there is an added sense of privacy.
