Entering the home you’ll find a lovely, Craftsman-appropriate front door, allowing loads of afternoon light to enter the foyer and on into the rest of the house. You’ll notice 5” character hickory hardwood everywhere; the formal dining room is on the left, allowing seating for 8-10 PLUS room for the sideboard. To the right you’ll see a Craftsman-style staircase with 4’ wide hardwood treads leading to the library and owner’s suite.
Ahead is the 18’ x 20’ living area with upgraded gas fireplace (rear black glass increases depth and remote makes operation super simple); double French doors lead out to over 600 sf of composite-deck balcony, overlooking more than 2 acres of tall trees, softening the morning light.
Off to the left is the stunning, light -filled modern, black & white, professional, multi-cook kitchen with stainless appliances including 6-burner dual fuel stove, French door refrigerator, whisper-quiet dishwater, microwave including air-fryer, extra-wide stainless steel double farmer’s sink; Italian composite countertops to include 4’ wide island with two eat-at places, plus a corner, eat-in nook. Through the back hall you’ll find an outsized, walk-in pantry, the back door to the cover porch (with fan), and powder room. Open the door and find a large mud/laundry room with Craftsman-appropriate tile floors. Here, a sink sits between the washer & dryer with plenty of storage over, an entry bench has drawer storage, and there is large, corner coat-closet. The last door takes you into the insulated garage, with upgraded insulated garage doors.
A short hall from the living area brings you to the two spacious family bedrooms with a large share bathroom between, including a huge linen closet. The door to the basement is off this hall. The doorway was built in a way to be opened (with door removed and opening widened) if desired.
