Home updates include newer AC, roof less than 15 yrs. old, 2 attic levels, freshly painted and more. Beautiful brick-paver dual-width driveway and brick-edged mulched beds front cream siding split-level that has wide, flat front brick paver entry/porch, perfect for potted plants and chairs. Step inside the front to back hardwood floored foyer with open railing on one side that makes LL feel open and connected to this floor. One can appreciate crown molding and see the French door entry to the sunroom. On left wall of front door is spacious DD hall closet and PR with tile floor and pedestal sink. To right is access to oversized, 2-car garage with large bump-out that has work bench/shelving. Also just past garage access is sizable room with closet/dual window that looks to sunroom and that can readily serve as 5th BR, home office or playroom. Great flex space to fit any lifestyle! At end of foyer is expansive 3-season sunroom that is series of wrap around windows, natural wood beadboard ceiling and indoor-outdoor carpeting. Doors to outside anchor opposite sides of sunroom. It's nice, sun-infused space that is ideal perch to enjoy comforts of indoors with wonderful clear views of outdoors. Extra square footage for everyday living and effortless entertaining! LL is home to cozy and comfortable carpeted FR, larger than normal dual transom-style window, and floor-to-ceiling brick gas FP with wood mantle. Adjacent is unfinished storage with, work bench and laundry facilities (utility sink). Main level boasts open, circular floorplan. A 15-glass-pane bow window spans back wall and is striking architectural element, allowing natural light to flood this room as well as DR that is to front of home and seamless to LR. This expansive window provides views of quiet nature and splashes of color that make up backyard and beyond! Crown molding reappears here and in DR. LR winds around to DR where chair rail and sets of double and single windows are introduced. Free-flowing floorplan ensues as DR is completely open to kitchen with upgrades of granite island, tile backsplash and new SS Whirlpool appliances (smart microwave). Gray subway tile enhances black, solid cabinets with open shelving flanking window. Combination of ceiling fan with light, pendant light over deep sink and succession of recessed lights that line perimeter of room above cabinets provide controlled lighting and create bright kitchen. Center island houses 2 narrow vertical cabinets, great for stashing trays, platters and baking sheets, and extended countertop creates breakfast bar with seating. Built-in desk/homework area with ceramic glass backdrop could double as coffee station and is wonderful place to file bills and paperwork.
