This new year brings you the most unique home on the market. Offering 5 oversized bedrooms plus a bonus room, this is the beginning of multigenerational living under one roof. As you approach this home, you are instantly drawn in by the curb appeal, featuring a covered porch, a concrete/paved driveway done in 2018, and a 1-car attached garage great for storage. The exterior of this home showcases detail and true craftsmanship, with a 45-year architectural shingle roof (installed 2018), Anderson vinyl windows (installed 2018), vinyl siding (installed 2018), and an in-ground sprinkler system (installed 2021). As we make our way into this home through the concrete walkway, you have the living area with a gas fireplace, built cabinetry with a wine display, and counter space. Walking through the living area, you make your way to the dining area, perfect for hosting, right off the kitchen for convenience. The kitchen offers white shaker cabinets with crown molding up to the ceilings, a large central granite island with charging outlets, a farmhouse stainless steel sink, and hardwood flooring throughout. Appliances on this floor include Frigidaire Professional (installed 2018), a drawer microwave, an upgraded stove, and a dishwasher (installed 2018). Stepping out of the kitchen, you have a door leading to the pantry and another to your first bathroom, featuring a frameless glass shower with built-in shelving, neutral wall tiles, and stone shower flooring offering radiant heated flooring (Renovated 2018). Stepping into your first bedroom with hardwood flooring throughout, an oversized window, and a walk-in closet, it's great for anyone with an extensive wardrobe and accessories. The second bedroom, aside from living space, can be turned into a home office. Now exiting the first floor, we make our way upstairs to our third bedroom with great natural light and newly installed carpeting. Out of this bedroom is your formal dining area with sliding doors out to the 10' by 16' deck that overlooks the beautifully thought-out backyard. The kitchen highlights the barstool seating at the granite island, stainless steel appliances (installed 2018), and endless cabinetry. Making our way into the living area, you have an oversized space with hardwood flooring throughout and a bay vinyl Anderson window bringing in a great deal of natural light, with a door leading to LG stackable washer/dryer. Both bedrooms offer great space, featuring a walk-in closet for one of them! The bathroom offers a double sink with an oversized mirror, tub and shower, and radiant flooring within. Making our way down the stairs to the basement with its own walkout, you have a third bathroom with a standing shower, vinyl flooring throughout, your own living/dining area that makes great space for extending living, and a bonus room which can be used for anything you could imagine. The basement also features closet space and its own washer and dryer (installed in 2018). Finishing inside, you now step outside to a beautiful backyard with a covered back patio with an outdoor kitchen, built-in gas grill, bar sink, refrigerator, TV, sound system, and an inground saltwater heated pool with a new pump and liner (installed 2024). Other features include a pondless waterfall, landscape lighting in flower beds and pond in the backyard, and an 8' by 10' shed. This is one of those houses where you have to see it to believe it!
