Designed as an open floor plan, there is abundant light in every room, accompanied by a sense of spaciousness. Access the wrap-around deck from either the FR, Sun room or Kitchen. Main level office is close to a full bath, and can easily serve as a guest room. Upstairs are 4 generous bedrooms: the master features updated full bath and walk-in closet. Walkout lower level is finished with full size windows bringing in natural light to the family room and fitness area. You'll love the generous storage throughout this warm and inviting home. South Shore Drive is a long cul de sac perfect for bike riding, and is just a short walk to Lake Windwing walking trails. You'll love this gem! Eligible for special financing: no closing costs and cash back at closing. Please follow Covid guidelines when showing: principals and agent only, and wear masks at all times. Owners love: Going fishing at the lake & hanging by the stream. Sledding down to the mailbox. Falling asleep to the sound of the babbling stream. The big windows always letting you feel like you're outside. Hiking in the woods. Entertaining: with the openness of the house I was able to be in the kitchen and still part of the party. Also while grilling on the deck, connecting with people in the yard. Agents please review Agent Remarks for offer submission guidelines.
