Conveniently located between Westover Village and the Lee Harrison Center, this light filled colonial has everything you want.
Built in 1991 and substantially renovated in the last three years, the home offers a dazzling new kitchen with crisp white cabinets, granite tops, Viking gas cooktop, oven and range hood; KitchenAid refrigerator, microwave and dishwasher.
The kitchen is open to the breakfast area with butler’s pantry featuring a U-Line wine fridge, sink and glass front cabinets. The adjoining mudroom and laundry has additional cabinet storage and an energy efficient Maytag washer and dryer. Just off the kitchen, the family room is a cozy spot with built in book cases flanking the fireplace.
The traditional living room flows into the kitchen and dining room with door to the screened in porch, making the home ideal for entertaining and daily living. Wood floors, recessed lighting, architectural details and stylish decor add appeal.
Upstairs the master suite includes an updated bathroom, walk in closet, sitting area in the bedroom and wood floors. The renovated hall bathroom has a double sink vanity and custom tile in the bathtub surround. Three large bedrooms complete the floor.
The lower level was re-designed to open the space for a big rec room. Built-in desks and bookcases center the room and a door leads to the back yard. The fifth bedroom and new bathroom on this level are perfect for an au pair, in-law or pampered guest. A big storage room is also on this level.
Important upgrades include a new large capacity electric panel with whole-home surge protector and an emergency generator sub-panel. Carrier Infinity 4-ton, 16 SEER air conditioning and Carrier Infinity 96% two-stage gas furnace and Carrier thermostat. An A.O. Smith 50 gallon pro max power vent water heater ensures comfort.
