About this House

This rambling timeless ranch across from the Middlefork Tennis Club, a private tennis and swim social club, is set on a generously picturesque and serene 3/4 acre. This is not a drive-by showing! This expanded and thoughtfully designed home, which is not in the floodplain, is larger than meets the eye and has a natural flow for easy living and entertaining. Five bedrooms and 3.5 baths provide ample room and endless versatility! Two large bay windows in the front living room and den provide an abundance of natural light and lovely outdoor scenes. Host gatherings in the elegant dining room located next to a beautiful chef's kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, double oven, wine fridge and walk-in pantry. Adjacent to the kitchen is a versatile and casual breakfast area that opens to a SHOWSTOPPER vaulted family room with a grand fireplace adorned with a towering mantel and custom millwork, creating a warm and inviting space. Walk through a sliding glass door into a delightful screened porch complete with tiled floor and a ceiling fan - the perfect blend of indoor comfort and outdoor connection. Nestled in the backyard off of the family room is a large deck, the perfect platform to dine, entertain or just enjoy the professionally landscaped, tranquil and private deep backyard.

    "Lots of parks and quiet streets to walk. I see a lot of dogs around but often people don’t pick up after them or let them off leash in parks. "
