About this home
This wonderful 2-story home has been lovingly maintained and updated in so many beautiful ways! With its composition of brick, shake shingles and vinyl siding, the home has awesome curb appeal, and the newer ThermaTru wood-grain clad front door, expansive porch and paver brick sidewalk add to the upscale appeal. Solid hardwood flooring in a softly glowing oil finish lead from the foyer into the majority of the main floor. 6 Panel solid wood doors with all new hardware and crown molding add architectural refinement. With its plentiful windows and 3 bump out bays, the home is washed in abundant natural light and the Formal Living Room is no exception. A large bump-out bay plus a set of double windows provide soothing light to this casually elegant room. The Formal Dining also has double windows, crown molding and has a private hallway that connects to the kitchen. The entire back half of the main floor consists of the most gorgeous kitchen and sunny breakfast nook, both open to the spacious Family Room. This wing is united by solid wood floors, and creates the perfect gathering hub for family and friends. The newer kitchen was totally remodeled with custom Koch cabinetry in a cream finish, including 42 inch upper cabinets connecting to the ceiling, w/full extension drawers; base cabinets w/double pull-outs; and dovetail construction. An impressive island with open shelving, cabinets and a hefty reclaimed solid-wood top centers the space. Corian counter tops with an integrated sink and a beveled subway tile backsplash provide reflective beauty, with the added bonus of easy-clean surfaces. Undercabinet lighting, stainless appliances (which all remain) and a double pantry round out this thoughtfully designed kitchen. A sunny Breakfast Nook with peaceful backyard views connects to a lovely screened porch, offering such a pretty setting for casual dining. The Family Room is centered around a stately fireplace and is extended by the bumped out bay windows, which frame more tranquil views of the backyard and the towering fir trees that stretch all across the back lot line. A 150 sq ft addition was added by the owners to establish a main floor laundry/office/craft room with a double closet. The updated Powder Room has a granite vessel sink and contemporary vanity. Upstairs, the Primary Bedroom Suite has a cathedral ceiling, and a huge bathroom with jetted tub, separate shower, dual vanity with solid surfaces and newer faucets, makeup vanity, and large walk-in closet. 3 other bedrooms up share a 2nd full bath, one of which has a bumped out bay window along with a set of double windows. The entire 2nd floor was also just freshly painted, including the ceilings. The finished basement has the 3rd Full Bath, along with an Exercise Room, 2nd Family Room with a dry bar, 2 closets and 2 large storage rooms. Enjoy the fully fenced backyard while relaxing on the Screened Porch, or step out onto the 12X18 aggregate patio. A custom trellis screen provides privacy around a small goldfish pond with a fountain and vegetation. A handy half-shed for extra storage remains with the property. What a great opportunity to own a home with so much quality and style!
