As you drive up to the house you may notice something intangible that sets this home apart from all the others nearby: its placement on the lot. The architect took care to set the house at an angle to the road and slightly back from the front line. It seems to just float happily on a gentle knoll. You wouldn't know there's a two car attached garage at the far side. It's out of sight and out of mind. In fact, you won't even notice the driveway until you have already pulled up to the house. Not very common.
When you enter from the front you'll pass through an inviting vestibule. The coat closet is immediately at hand. Straight ahead is the stairway to the second floor. It doesn't feel cramped. There's room to maneuver. The thresholds on either side are open. The space feel airy. To your left if the Dining Room (currently used as a combo sitting room). To your right is the Living Room. A beautiful fireplace is the architectural centerpiece of the Living room. The oak floors have been beautifully refinished!
The Kitchen has been completely remodeled. The dominant color is white but black granite counters add a highly graphic accent. Impressive! Cabinet & counter space are plentiful. At the far end of the kitchen is a breakfast bar with a window that looks out on the back yard. Just beyond the breakfast bar is the powder room. Across from the powder room is an informal guest entry door. Open the door and you'll pass through an enclosed foyer-like area with storage shelves. Once you are in that space you'll see two doors. One door takes you outside and to a pathway next to the garage. Your closest friends who park on the driveway would probably use this informal entrance. The other door inside that space takes you in to the garage. You'll use this entrance on a daily basis.
Upstairs there are three bedrooms. The owner's bedroom is a very good size. Closets line on entire wall. Two big windows draw in natural light all day long. The main bathroom is bigger than you might expect for a home of this size and age. An access panel to the crawlspace may be found in the upstairs hallway.
The basement is mostly devoted to utility access and storage however, there is a partially finished space you could use as informal recreation, working out, home office, hobby, etc. The furnace is gas-fired, hot air unit with central air conditioning. The plumbing is cooper and the electrical system is circuit breakers.
The exterior of this home is vinyl sided. At the back there's a patio made of paver bricks. The roof will be replaced by the current owner prior to closing and will be included in the purchase price.
This home is in simply wonderful condition. Every room has been updated and improved over the years by the current owner. You'll be able to move in and enjoy your new home without a serious worry for some time to come!
