Fabulous in Fox Point! The inviting charm of this stately colonial home welcomes you with its spacious foyer and warm hardwood flooring throughout the main living areas on both the first and second levels. Flanked by the dining and living rooms with an updated half-bath in between, there is an abundance of natural light through the many full-length windows. The chef's kitchen boasts top-of-the-line appliances, custom cabinetry, island with breakfast bar and pantry cabinet. Linger over your morning coffee in the eating area with sliders to the sunroom. The adjacent family room with cozy fireplace and beamed ceilings is sure to be a favorite gathering space. Another set of sliders leads to the brick paver patio seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor entertaining. Vaulted ceilings, two skylights and picturesque views of the deep rear yard are found in the sun/three seasons room. A first-floor laundry room with exterior access and direct entry to the attached 2-car garage provides convenience and functionality. The second floor boasts 5 spacious bedrooms and two full baths including the primary suite with walk-in closet & luxe ensuite. The finished basement with rec and game rooms, office, full bath and ample storage offers a wonderful bonus space for additional living and entertaining needs.
