This home has a quaint, welcoming front entrance foyer that transitions into a good sized living room with hardwoods, wood burning fireplace, built-in cabinetry and wainscoting and a bay window/seat. Off the living room is a heated sun room that provides a relaxing retreat from the day. An arched transition leads to a bonus room off the living room with more built-in cabinetry, and stained glass window. From there step into the nicely appointed, updated eat-in kitchen with newer stainless appliances, solid surface counters, ornate cabinetry, newer laminate flooring, attractive lighting and an arched alcove over the sink. This opens into a spacious formal dining room with a beautiful built-in hutch, more wainscoting topped by shelving and another bay window/seat. Off the kitchen is a rear mudroom/foyer with built in cabinetry and storage, a bench seat w/built-in coat rack and an updated half bath. This leads to the fully fenced, secluded back yard with a wrap around deck and newer stampcrete patio, shed and fire pit. Very private! Upstairs you will find an updated full bath, and the spacious primary bedroom with hardwoods, shadow box molding, shelving and more built-ins. There are 2 more good sized bedrooms as well, one with beautiful built in bookshelves and hardwoods in both rooms. Through one of the bedrooms is the walk-up finished attic! This has two separate rooms that could be additional bedrooms, an office, storage, whatever you choose! The rear of the home backs up to Dyett Drive, where you will find the 1 car garage and triple wide driveway with a rear entrance to the back yard. Newer roof, electrical panel, boiler, hot water tank, newer washer/dryer and several new windows. Close to schools, including the desirable Ridge Mills elementary, walk to Franklyn's Field and close to shopping and amenities. Don't miss this stunning, unique home!
