The home offers a totally updated kitchen, updated wiring, a gunite pool, a bonus room, beautiful wood floors, updated fixtures and can lights, high ceilings, large bedrooms, ample natural light throughout, a two car garage with storage space, & an extra flex room with a full bathroom off of the garage. Located at the corner of Audubon and Government, you will enjoy easy access to parks, OLOM, Government St restaurants and shops, Independence Park, the Goodwood Library, Towne Center, & more! With a large circle drive & two car garage, both on Audubon, your guests will have plenty of options for parking. The backyard offers notable features including a brick courtyard with fountain, gunite pool, pergola, greenhouse, mature trees, & large grassy areas inside & outside of the fence. On the other side of the inviting, deep front porch your guests will find a grand foyer with a beautiful fixture. The formal dining room is on your right and the kitchen is on the other side of the dining room. The kitchen was completely renovated in 2015 with new cabinets, granite, updated fixtures, can lights, under cabinet lighting, updated appliances, a large island, and a nearby wet bar. To the left of the foyer is a large living room boasting a fireplace & french doors opening to the sunroom. Off of the main hallway are two additional bedrooms, both with their own bathrooms (one also accessible from the hall for guests). The master suite is at the end of the main hallway with beautiful views of the pool & backyard and a renovated bathroom. A bedroom, bonus room, and bathroom are found upstairs, where the AC was recently replaced and insulation was added. This upstairs space is perfect for siblings to share, a home office, a man cave, or even a play or recreation room. In addition to updates mentioned, the downstairs ductwork was replaced in 2015, the pool pump was replaced in 2018, and the roof replaced in 2008.
