Description

Some homes offer so much, that you don't know where to begin. Let's start with the pool, because it really is quite the star. Built-in, with a diving board in the deep end, the amount of fun to be had is endless. And what better way to watch that fun than from choosing between the screened-in patio or poolside in the sun. Before we even step foot inside, we still have to highlight the 3/4 acre lot with wooded land behind the home, which is a rare find in a neighborhood setting, and provides privacy...Some homes offer so much, that you don't know where to begin. Let's start with the pool, because it really is quite the star. Built-in, with a diving board in the deep end, the amount of fun to be had is endless. And what better way to watch that fun than from choosing between the screened-in patio or poolside in the sun. Before we even step foot inside, we still have to highlight the 3/4 acre lot with wooded land behind the home, which is a rare find in a neighborhood setting, and provides privacy for that pool enjoyment. Once inside, it's the traditional layout through and through. The separate living room & family room with natural fireplace. The beautifully updated kitchen between the breakfast nook & dining room. And the study with built-in shelving provides versatility as an optional fifth bedroom on the entry level, if needed. Upstairs, the primary suite will astound you, with a secret I dare not disclose publicly (though can be interpreted if you look closely enough through the photos). Its impeccably updated bathroom features a tub big enough for two. The finished basement includes both additional living space, and storage space. Even the garage provides more than what's typical, with a separate workshop/storage space. Everywhere you look, this home features something you're not likely to find elsewhere. So don't wait to schedule your showing!
