Located on a private cul de sac in one of Franconia's premiere residential developments. The home is privately sited down a stonewalled circular driveway on a well landscaped lot. This four bedroom 3 bath home has seen may upgrades in the past 2.5 years. New roof, exterior restaining, landscaping,brush & tree clearing,and the driveway regraded. The interior has been repainted, some new appliances, and new lighting. The lower level has been finished into a tremendous added living space with one bedroom, full bath, a family-room. The first floor has an open floor plan with french doors to the sun splashed deck which is wired for a hot tub. There are 2 bedrooms and a full bath on the first floor and hard wood flooring throughout. The second story has a master bedroom fully carpeted, separate bath with shower, plus an open loft area. The newly completed lower level is great added space for extended family and guests, sliders that open to a patio and fire pit. There is a great deal to offer with this property. The home is being sold fully furnished; turn key to be lived in year round or just vacation and rent it when you won't be using it, put it to work for you. This really is a great find in a great location surrounded by other high end homes.
