Close proximity to I-295, 64, 895, downtown and just a short drive to Williamsburg allows an easy commute in every direction. The enclosed foyer is just the beginning of hardwood floors, crown molding and chair rail running throughout much of the 1st floor. The Living room boasts floor to ceiling shelves for books, games, or to display your special treasures while the oversized Pella windows provide a beautiful view of the nature outside. The built in cabinets and illuminated glass shelves add a touch of elegance to the dining room. The kitchen was designed with efficiency and convenience in mind making preparation of meals a breeze. Enjoy the abundance of cabinets including pull out mixer shelf, multilevel quartz counters, lighted corner cabinet plus a huge pantry. The kitchen is open to a dining area and den with a panoramic view of the rear yard. Spacious first floor primary bedroom has private bath and huge, well designed walk in closet. Upstairs are two bedrooms, large bathroom, two double hallway closets and walk in attic. The garage is a dream come true! Two double drive thru doors with openers allow easy entry to the heated garage ready for you to utilize the abundance of shelves. Off the garage is a room which can be used as an additional living space or comfortable workshop. Don't miss seeing the large flex room upstairs which can be another bedroom, office, craft or play room. Built with energy efficiency as a priority, you will notice the wide window sills as the house was built to a higher quality design of double wall framing using an air gap to significantly improve the effectiveness of insulation and noise reduction. See listing attachment for more added features as there is just not enough room to mention it all! Don't miss out!
