Pride in Ownership of this sprawling, meticulously kept, custom-built home by Allen Small, with a large irrigated landscaped lot that's big enough for an expansive pool. The floor plan design was ''ahead of its' time'' for 1985. Family and friends will be drawn to the large and inviting family room with an eat-in kitchen and the impressive white and bright 3-season porch with sliders to an outdoor patio. If your desire is a little quiet time with a good book or your favorite Netflix show, pull up...Pride in Ownership of this sprawling, meticulously kept, custom-built home by Allen Small, with a large irrigated landscaped lot that's big enough for an expansive pool. The floor plan design was ''ahead of its' time'' for 1985. Family and friends will be drawn to the large and inviting family room with an eat-in kitchen and the impressive white and bright 3-season porch with sliders to an outdoor patio. If your desire is a little quiet time with a good book or your favorite Netflix show, pull up a comfy chair in your spacious living room or dining room, This home was designed with large gatherings in mind and ''fun and family time'' was clearly a priority. This is evident once you enter the finished basement with its' impressive built-in bar and game room. Gleaming hardwood floors throughout that look new or barely used and a new Central A/C system that was just installed so no worries if the temp hits 90. This is a home where many memories were made and you will be eager to make them too. Let this Thanksgiving be your beginning to establish new traditions in your new family home. I look forward to meeting you.
