This graceful 4 BD, 2 Full and 2 Half Bath home is being sold by the original owners, one of whom was a talented carpenter. Custom Built-in bookcases with lighted glass display cabinets, crown molding with picture railings, wainscoting, picture frame molding (not to be confused with picture rail moldings), solid wood doors with fluted moldings and bullseye corners, solid wood interior shutters - and more. Family room features rich mahogany stained paneling, a handsome brick fireplace, more built-ins - and pocket doors! Formal dining room features an interior glass wall that folds back, enlarging the dining room seamlessly with the breakfast room for an extra-large dining area that can easily sit 20+ for Thanksgiving! This expanded dining area flows outside to the multi-tiered brick patio – they don’t make brick patios like this anymore! Lovely expansive rear yard with mature trees and landscaping gently rolls to a creek-bed. Back inside, hardwoods grace the main and upper levels. The lower level also features a brick fireplace, surrounded by built-ins, would be an ideal place for the gamer in the family. The custom-built wet bar would suit the contemporary collector of small-craft spirits or cigars. Plenty of storage and room for your own hobbies – such as woodworking! The brick stamped concrete driveway offers ample off-street parking. Updates and replacements include windows, HVAC, roof and primary en-suite bath. Walking distance to the local elementary school. No hoa! This house will not last long on the market.
