Quaint wrap-around porch, full double car garage, and a fenced backyard bordering a stream are a few of the exterior highlights. The ground level features a formal living room w/cool curved picture window, spacious den w/wood-burning fireplace, dining room, powder bath, & great kitchen w/peninsula bar plus room for a breakfast table. Head upstairs to the 1,000+ sf of bedrooms, including the primary w/huge walk-in closet & enough space to accommodate a king. Use your imagination in the finished basement w/two open flexible use areas. One section is currently used as a workout space & the other as a playroom. However w/another full bath on this level, it could also be the perfect spot for an office, rec room or even another bedroom. Need a little elbow room close to downtown? This home is a MUST-SEE w/public utilities & American Home Shield Essential Warranty included.
