Discover the enchanting blend of elegance and comfort in this 4-bedroom, 2.5 bath home, nestled in Dunkirk's desirable Smithville community. Across its generous 3,500 sq. ft. of finished living area (an additional 500 sq. ft) of unfinished space, this extremely well-maintained residence is warm and welcoming. The main level consists of separate formal living and dining rooms, a room for a home office or home schooling and the inviting family room, complete with a propane fireplace. The kitchen is adorned with cherry wood shaker style cabinets and beautiful honed granite countertops, a subway tile backsplash and SS appliances (refrigerator and d/w new in 2017, stove 2021) a custom-made butcher-block island and a sizable area for table space. The laundry completes the main level (W/D new in 2023)
French doors open to a beautifully crafted composite deck (remodeled in 2022) that looks out over the tranquil setting and wooded private rear yard. The upper level is a sanctuary, housing all bedrooms, including a beautiful primary suite with hardwood floors, dual closets, and a spa-like bath with dual vanities and a custom ceramic shower and floors. The home extends with a partially finished lower level featuring a rough-in for future expansion, a side walk-out, and additional space for workshop pursuits. With a radon mitigation system in place, this home combines luxury with practicality and safety. The community also has a newly renovated tennis court.
