This one is not just a drive-by. You’ve got to see it all, including the great backyard! The home features four levels of finished living areas. The main level kitchen has been upgraded with custom cabinetry, including slide-out shelving and a pantry; good quality granite countertops and island; tile flooring, and stainless appliances. The dining room adjoins both the kitchen and living room. The living room and dining room include carpet over hardwood floors. Three bedrooms with ceiling fans and closets, a recently updated full bath, and a nice central hall are located on the upper level. Take a few steps down from the main floor to enter a spacious game room, which adjoins a recently finished family room, with views of the expansive fenced rear lawn, and patio area. This level also includes a large .5 bath, and a laundry room, all above grade. A den toward the front of the dwelling is counted as below-grade living area, and provides entry to the garage, which is currently an approximate 10’ x 12’ storage area only. The wall to the laundry room could be easily removed, if you prefer a one-car garage. A 2nd laundry hook-up is in place in the large .5 bath. Take a few more steps down to the basement level, and you’ll find a modestly finished sound proof office—great for work-from-home. The remaining below-grade area provides plenty of unfinished storage, mechanicals, shelving, and a work bench. Assessor listing of 1402sf does not include all above-grade finished living area. Except for the den, three levels are above grade finished living area. Updates also include New Architectural Shingle Roof in 2009, New Downspouts and Gutters and New Chimney in 2021.
