The Master En-Suite features hardwood flooring, beamed cathedral ceilings, window seat, a generous wall of closets and master bath. The master suite sits alone on the top floor offering a quiet and private space away from the rest of the home. Stepping down to the main level you walk...This quality built Mid-Century Modern Split is over 2400 sqft of special that doesn't come along everyday. It is nestled on a park-like 1/2 acre lot with a professionally landscaped garden and room for the kids to play. The Master En-Suite features hardwood flooring, beamed cathedral ceilings, window seat, a generous wall of closets and master bath. The master suite sits alone on the top floor offering a quiet and private space away from the rest of the home. Stepping down to the main level you walk into the generous living room with brick fireplace and corner balcony... yep, I said it, a corner balcony. I told you this home was special. There is a sizable dining room, which leads to the light and bright kitchen with white wooden cabinets that brighten up as the light comes streaming in from the skylight above. The sizable family room which is sports a stone fireplace and is decked out in real wood "retro trending" paneling that really makes it a great place to relax. The adjoining rec room is home to your pool table. There is a separate home office area off of the family room which is now more important that ever. Also it would be very easy to finish off the 17'x12' workshop area into a wonderful space (bedroom/office). Still more there is an 8'x8' roughed-in 3rd bathroom off of the rec room. That means with very little work this could be an over 2700 sqft 5 bedroom 3 bath home. The home has been lovingly cared for and very well maintained but you will want to make any number of cosmetic updates so the seller's have made this affordable and it is a blank canvas for you to come make it your own. Don't let the Fairview location give you pause, this isn't the very busy part of Fairview this is right down from the YMCA. All that said, bring some that imagination with you as you schedule your private showing or virtual walk through of this truly special home.
