This lovingly maintained home backs to a tranquil community pond. Notice upon your arrival: tasteful landscaping, a newer roof along with newer shutters, gutters and downspouts. A covered front porch with newer front door and leaded-glass side-lite make a great first impression. Upon entering you'll find a welcoming foyer with gleaming tile, fluted moldings and crown molding. Directly off the foyer is the generously sized main living area with light-flooding windows and a great flow for entertaining. Adjacent is the light and bright formal dining area featuring a bay window with a view of the pond. Next stop is the eat-in kitchen with more gleaming tile, another generous dining area, plus granite counters, tumbled stone back splash, warm wood cabinets (with both dentil and crown molding), stainless appliances, newer gas range, a prep island, plenty of counter space and a copious pantry. Step outside through the newer sliding door onto to a large, ultra low maintenance deck overlooking the fenced-in back yard and the picturesque pond beyond. In addition to the built-in benches and ample entertaining area on the deck, you will also find an aggregate patio, stepping stone walkways and a super-sized shed, just a few steps away. Returning back inside our last stop is a lovely updated half bath. Take the stairs to the upper level and notice all new carpeting (within the last year). The large Master Suite features dual closets and an updated en-suite bath with a beautiful, custom-tiled shower. Rounding out the upper level are two guest bedrooms sharing a hall bath with tumbled stone back splash. Return to the stairway and make your way down to the unfinished lower level. Here you will find plenty of supplemental entertaining and play space. Warmly painted foundation walls surround an exercise area, a laundry area and a man-cave area with room for a pool table and an over-sized storage closet. Over $30,000 in upgrades have gone into this meticulously maintained home including: Roof, Composite Deck, Patio, Fence, Newer two-stage Furnace (09), 50-gal. Water Heater (08), extra insulation in the main attic (prior owner) ... the list goes on. Before leaving, be sure to return to the rear deck and enjoy the magnificent sunset right behind you.
