From the moment you enter into the Italian marble tiled foyer, you'll be amazed at all the home has to offer. The bright & cheery living rm opens via pocket doors into the quaint dining rm tucked just off the kitchen. The spacious kitchen has updated cabinets & is fully equipped w/ all appliances & has a breakfast bar that opens the kitchen into the large yet "ever so cozy" family rm w/ a lovely wood burning fireplace & lots of custom built shelving. The bonus rm, currently used as an office, has pretty accent brick walls, French sliding doors & a pass through window from the kitchen. You'll really love how large all the bedrooms are! Master suite features a big walk-in closet & overlooks the picturesque back yard. Master bath has a double sink vanity, a slate tile floor, a garden tub & a glass enclosed step-in shower. The 3rd BA w/ a step-in shower is located near the garage & kitchen. The laundry rm has extra cabinets & a sink & is just across the hall from the large pantry closet. There's a double garage w/ side entry, a circular drive in the front, a fairly new roof, updated double pane windows & there's even a 30X20 deck on the rear of the home overlooking the beautifully shaded back yard. Part of the back yard is fenced & ideal for your family & pets to romp & play, yet the property line extends much, much further back beyond the fence to the far tree line in the distance. A rare find that you won't want to miss!
