1725 Radcliffe Rd, Montgomery, AL 36106

This lovely four-bedroom home in the desirable Midtown area is decked out in neutral tones and finishes, but it's by no means plain; it's got plenty of warm character with wide-plank wood floors in the main living spaces, a beamed ceiling and cozy brick-hearth fireplace in the den, and wood plantation shutters in the front that provide privacy while still letting light stream in the ample windows. Its inviting open floor plan lets folks in the gourmet kitchen (complete with sleek granite, classic tile, tons of cabinet and counter space and stainless-steel appliances) visit with those relaxing in the large den with gas fireplace or those snacking in the bright breakfast nook framed by floor-to-ceiling windows or at the huge kitchen island bar. Right around the corner, a massive bonus room with built-in cabinets, open shelving, plus a built-in desk, makes for the perfect playroom or TV room or even a crafting space. Up by the front door, an exquisite formal dining room with heavy crown moulding and chair rail accent sits across the entry hall from an elegant living room that doubles as a refined study. And a large master suite completes this pretty and welcoming picture.
