Pride of ownership since 1991 shows in this one! This lovely 4BR, 3.5BA home is a unique find amongst so many other cookie-cutter colonials. New owners will enjoy TWO primary bedrooms, both on upper level. A 2003 renovation added the largest of the 4 bedrooms, with vaulted ceilings, large windows, built-in bookcases, a walk-in closet, and dual-zone heating/cooling (added an attic HVAC). The ensuite bath was renovated in 2019 and has a soaking tub, dual vanities, a walk-in shower, and a heated towel rack. The 2nd primary BR had its bathroom made over in 2019 as well. The third full bath is also located on the upper level which can be shared by BRs 3 and 4. Hardwood floors cover the entire main level and stairs, and if you’re worried about storage – don’t. This home has 13 closets! The gourmet kitchen remodel (2019) has tons of storage, a breakfast bar that seats three, quartz countertops, SS appliances w JennAir gas stove, and new lighting. Just off the kitchen is a family room and a sizeable area between kitchen and family room that can easily accommodate a large table, if desired. You can walk-out to the large deck from here as well to enjoy spending time out back with mature trees and lots of shade. The formal, separate dining room is adjacent to kitchen and gets so much natural light through the front windows. The extra-large living room has a wood-burning fireplace (fp surround glass tile and hearth replaced in 2010). This could also be a play room, large office, music room, or another family room! Out back is a lovely patio to relax on that connects to the LL door by way of a hardscaped path. Parking is a breeze. The long driveway can accommodate at least 6 cars, including the garage. Spring will be here soon, and with it will come all the lovely blooms of the property’s gardens and landscaping. The super-cozy lower level is mostly finished and is currently arranged for both fun and relaxation. With full-sized windows, it feels more like an extension of the upper levels, and not “basement-y.” Take care of laundry in a spacious, finished area with a utility sink and extra storage. With an unfinished workroom right off the laundry area, and private walk-out egress directly to the backyard, the LL has in-law suite potential. Adjacent to the workroom is the one-car garage, and next to the garage is an indoor enclosed storage area for your mower, tools, etc. Eco-conscious buyers will love the OWNED solar panels (2020) and an installed ChargePoint Level 2 EV charger. An under-deck draining system provides a rain-proof location for more storage, or even if the heavens open up in the middle of grilling! 6286 Amherst is one of the largest homes in the neighborhood. **Tax record is incorrect – there is an estimated 3,750 total sq ft of finished living space.** Allview Estates is NOT part of the Columbia Association, is considered a hidden-gem community in Columbia, and with the property located on a cul-de-sac with an almost a half-acre lot, it becomes even more desirable. A commuter’s dream location and centrally located to all HoCo amenities, you’ll have easy access to 29 and 32 and 95, getting you to wherever it is you need to be quickly, and without hassle.
