This home is one of the largest models the community of Green Acres has to offer, equipped with over 3,000 sq ft. of livable space and has been well maintained over the years. As you enter this warm and inviting home, you'll find the timeless beauty of parquet hardwood flooring, a spacious living room to the left, perfect for any family gathering and to the left, a formal dining room leading to the kitchen which has been modified in the years past. The kitchen has a gas stovetop and plenty of counter space with an island perfect for informal meals. The four, generous-sized bedrooms are situated on the upper levels of this home. Bedroom 2, shares the first upper-level with the primary bedroom. The primary has a walk-in closet organized with wooden shelving.

These two bedrooms are separated by a large sunroom equipped with recessed lighting. The attic is also located on this level and access can be found in both bedroom 3 and 4. Moving to the lower levels of this one-of-a-kind home, are the family room/den, an entry to the one-car garage with loft space for storage, an updated powder room, plus an office with an exterior door leading to the fenced backyard. On this level you’ll also find a large, screened porch with a hammock and plenty of space for relaxing and/or entertaining. Outside of the porch, is a concrete pad perfect for a grill. The basement has been partially finished to afford private space for a media room, gym, playroom, or simply use for storage space. Laundry is located also in the basement. The following was replaced within the last four years: Hot Water Heater (2022), new Roof, gutters and downspouts, with leaf shields (2021), new HVAC system (2020), and driveway and walkway were replaced with concrete (2019). The community has 3 pools, with a swim team that’s been around since the neighborhood was first established.
