Located in the desirable Belknap neighborhood, this home boasts a total of 2,548 finished square feet. It has undergone an entire renovation in 2015 when the sellers purchased it, creating a new floor plan and building an addition to accommodate the first floor primary suite. Everything was replaced from top to bottom in this remodel- including the roof, windows, electrical & panel, plumbing, sprayed foam insulation, furnace/AC/split systems, 2 car detached garage, a new driveway- and the list keeps on going. As you enter the home, you can't help but swoon over the custom walnut hardwood floors and how the large living space is bright and cheery. The custom eat-in kitchen is great for entertaining, yet practical and comfortable enough for everyday living. The granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and direct access to your back deck and yard make this a classic kitchen that will never go out of style. Your first floor living houses a half bathroom, a wonderful laundry room that doubles as a storage closet as well, and your primary bedroom suite. The primary suite has his and her closets, a large bathroom with a walk-in shower, and private access to the back deck. Upstairs you will find the home's second and third bedrooms, with three walk-in closets between them, a second full bathroom, and a large linen closet. The storage in this home is a rarity for the Highlands! The finished basement offers a second half bathroom, a utility sink room, and a large flex space perfect for either an additional den, office space, gym, or playroom-with multiple closets and a large crawl space for more storage. Outside, the backyard is a beautiful and colorful oasis in the spring and summer, with a low maintenance green space, brand new driveway, and the two-car garage that currently holds two mid-size SUV's comfortably. Don't miss your opportunity to see this beauty- she won't last long!
