Description

WOW! Impeccable, pristine and completely updated are just a few adjectives for this absolutely gorgeous home which you truly cannot appreciate until you see inside! This completely renovated home has possibility for in-law suite/extra living quarters, and sits on a 1.1 acre lot (which seems even bigger with the adjacent open side & rear lots which will never be built on)! From the curb throughout the entire interior of this home you will find pure elegance! The completely open floor plan makes this home super spacious, and the abundance of oversized (all newer) windows (all with custom drapes & blinds) throughout make it extra bright with so much natural light. As you enter the foyer thru the new front (and screen) door (with Ring camera included), you will find an oversized coat closet. The foyer opens up to the gracious living room which boasts vaulted ceilings, floor to ceiling windows, an electric fireplace and engineered white oak hardwood flooring that runs throughout the 1st floor, as well as plenty of recessed lighting. The living room is wide open to the luxurious kitchen which has an oversized 37.5" x 10.3' center island/breakfast bar with beautiful hanging pendant lights, a seamless, white quartz countertop, white farmhouse sink with goose-neck faucet and an under counter microwave. The top-of-the-line kitchen appliances are all included (induction range with overhead pot filler, overhead vent to match all the stainless appliances, Bosch super-silent dishwasher, Bosch counter-depth refrigerator and dual zone under counter wine refrigerator). There is also a pantry, an abundance of cabinets and beautiful, leathered, granite countertops as well as a professionally-tiled backsplash . There is also an interior door for garage access from the kitchen as well as sliders to the newer 14 x 39 trex deck with steps to the beautiful, rear yard (shed included). A gorgeous primary bedroom is located on the 1st floor and has oversized double windows with a window seat, black-out, custom roman shades, a remote, lighted ceiling fan and a walk-in closet. The primary bathroom is breathtaking with double sinks, white quartz vanity w/ plenty of drawers and storage, and a gorgeous, oversized, professionally-tiled shower with glass doors, & professionally-tiled floors. A lovely, convenient powder room is also located on the 1st floor. (All blinds on 1st floor are 1/2 up 1/2 down except living room). 2nd floor has 2 spacious bedrooms with lighted ceiling fans, oversized windows all with black out blinds, plenty of closet space and an updated, jack-and-jill full bathroom with new vanity, toilet and floor, a pull-down showerhead and a linen closet. As if this isn't enough, the above-ground, walk-out basement is finished with sliders to the level back yard and even includes an electric fireplace, recessed lighting, luxury vinyl plank flooring, a beautiful full bath and a lovely laundry room with a spacious double closet with shelves and a stainless steel laundry tub (with white base) too (washer and dryer excluded). There is even an extra room currently used as an in-home gym (NordicTrack treadmill included) but could be another bedroom, office, playroom, etc. and an unfinished area/workshop with built-in work benches and even a 2nd laundry tub too. This house has been remodeled from top to bottom, inside and out! The HVAC is just one-year new, as well as new siding, gutters, double tilt-in windows, fixtures, Wifi thermostat, Ring camera, keyed entry from garage to house, all soft-close toilets (except basement), 1/2 screens for all the windows and a screen for the front door as well and so much more. Words can just not even describe the updated/upgrades in this home! Come see! You will not be disappointed! It is just beautiful OFFER DEADLINE 7PM SUNDAY 4/12
