The carpeted second floor has four bedrooms and upgraded tiled hall bathroom and marble countertop. The large master bedroom is part of the three-floor extension added in 2012 with gorgeous travertine stone, spa tub and large frameless glass walk-in shower.
The main level has a formal dining room with original hardwood flooring, half bath, kitchen with tile flooring, and large open family room with two built-in floor-to-ceiling shelves on either side of a wood-burning fireplace, and combination of carpet and hardwood floors and large bay window. The custom kitchen is part of the extension which includes stone counters and onyx backsplash, a breakfast nook surrounded by windows that feels like a year-round sunroom with a large bay window. An 8’ sliding glass door provides an easy walkout to the back deck that overlooks a large, serene backyard. Step down to an extended patio area of wood and stone. The kitchen also has an entry from the 2-car garage. The extra-large driveway has plenty of parking.
The lower level highlights a large laundry room with 10’ of kitchen cabinets, utility sink, carpeted recreation room, and full bath with granite counter and walk-in shower. Unfinished closets house the extremely energy efficient multi-speed HVAC heat pump, heat pump hot water heater, and a radon mitigation system. A sliding glass door provides a walkout to a concrete patio, and from the patio you can access the lower-level extension that provides a separate enclosed heated and cooled basement area for tons of extra storage.
The home is on a corner lot with mature trees surrounding the property on three sides for additional privacy. A fenced-in organic garden has already been started and ready for the harvest. A mini-orchard of Pawpaw trees, the only North American tropical fruit, located on the side yard produces fruit in September.
