Welcome home! This handsome and gracious house is wonderfully designed for today’s active and outgoing family. A solid house with attractive exterior flares set on a large lot. Made of brick, the house has elongated overhanging eves, double hung double pane vinyl windows, and multiple backyard porch and decks. The interior of the home flows easily through the three levels providing space for adults and children, yet has line of sight connections through wide stairways, archways and hallways. On the third level,2nd story, are three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, both baths remodeled with new granite counter tops, sinks and facets, and have gleaming white wainscot tile. This flows through a short wide stairway down to the second level where there is the front door entry way that opens to a generous living room, a dining room and a large kitchen. The living room is wonderfully illuminated by large low windows overlooking the big front lawn and flows through an archway into the dining room that looks out at the large back yard and the flowering dogwood trees and azaleas. The kitchen is a true “cooks kitchen” as it is large with all new Stainless Steel appliances, gas stove, new granite counter top and sink, with loads of counter top room and ample cabinets - both upper, lower and a vertical pantry. The double kitchen windows let in lots of natural light and overlook the decks and backyard with the flowering camellias in the background. The kitchen flows down a wide open stairway into the lower ground level that has a very large open den that can be monitored from the kitchen. The den has plush new carpet and padding, and an attractive half bath. On the ground floor there is also a full carpeted bedroom for the teenager (or an office) and a large well lit utility room for the washer/dryer that has lots of shelf storage space and two storage closets. Out of the back door, the den opens up onto a raised screened-in porch with double overhead fans and a copper roof. The porch is connected to a huge open raised deck that has two levels and is surrounded by built in bench seating – perfect for family BBQ’s and parties! The large back yard has a detached garage with lots of cabinets and work benches, a long concrete driveway with a basketball goal and plenty of room to park the boat, and a separate fenced in “dog run” in the far back. The home is located in desirable Fort Johnson Estates which has its own very active community association, clubhouse and swimming pool. There are only two roads into this subdivision with many kids riding their bikes to and from the pool, lots of walkers, nice southeast breezes and a short walk to Sunset Park, James Island Yacht Club or the Fort Johnson Marine Compound.In the recent past the hardwood floors throughout have been refinished, 30 year roof installed, interior recessed lighting, new windows throughout, new gas water heater.
