Property Description


0.00 Acres Lot
Built in 1959
For Sale - Active
Units n/a

Welcome home to an all-brick, meticulously maintained home situated on a double lot. This home is perfect! Walk into an inviting living room area accentuated with hardwood floors and dressed in warm colors. Lounge comfortably on your sectional couch as you watch your TV favorite show - all while gazing out of a large bay window. Use the hallway to showcase art and photos. There are three bedrooms on the main floor, which truly adds to the functionality and appeal of this home; there is also a fourth bedroom on the second floor and there is also a fifth bedroom in the basement. There are separate entrances leading to all three floors as well. Each bedroom is spacious with ample closet space and custom, built-in closets. The first floor bathroom features a beautiful vanity, timeless tiles and a dual shower head. And, the kitchen is equally fabulous with its custom, dual colored, shaker kitchen cabinets topped with a crisp white quartz countertop, stainless steel appliances and dashed with subway backsplash tiles. Then, enjoy that quick breakfast meal or that family dinner in a light filled breakfast area. It even gets better with the second floor! The second floor feels like its own private suite. It touches on all levels: cozy, fun and happy. The beaded vaulted ceilings add a classy design. The skylights add warmth with natural, crisp sunlight. This space is versatile; it can be used as a second floor family room, an office or a play area. It also has several built-in storage units on both sides. The primary suite is just awesome; the vaulted ceilings add to the continued comfort level; it also has additional storage space neatly built into the walls. The second floor primary bathroom features a functional design with its shower, shower head, LED mirror and modern vanity. The finished lower level is equally impressive. The lower level features an additional bedroom, a full bathroom, a bonus room and a huge laundry room. And then we have a beautiful, private yard surrounded by nature, and a stone walkway leading to a fire pit: share your best stories around it. This home is beautiful and it is close to everything: 294, 88 and 290, schools, shopping, restaurants and so much more! It is a true 10! Show and sell. PLEASE NOTE: There are active cameras inside and outside of this home.
