The spacious main floor offers flexibility and ample space for entertaining, working from home and enjoying tranquility. You enter through the cheery yellow front door to a Living Room with wood burning fireplace, built-ins and hardwood flooring. The white kitchen with quartz countertop is separate from the formal Dining Room. There is a great flow to the back off the home where you will find a powder bath and Family Room. There are sliding doors off the Family Room that lead to a spacious trex deck. The main floor also has a four season room flooded with light from wall to wall windows. The craftsman original staircase leads up to the second floor where there are three bedrooms and one full bathroom. The primary bedroom has a walk-in closet adjacent to the main bath. The LL can also be accessed by the attached 2 car garage with epoxy flooring. There is a laundry area, utilities and plenty of storage. Don't miss the "wine cellar' door that leads to a recreational room with heat and cooling currently used as a wine tasting room. The landscape is lush and lovingly maintained with something in bloom at each part of the year. The tulip display in Spring is a neighborhood treasure! In addition to the 2 car attached garage there is a car port with a ceiling that can also be used for gardening, storage or an outdoor living space.
