Brand new 25 Year Owen's Corning TruDefinition Duration Series Roof! Welcome home to this stunning Merriam show-stopper featuring a spacious primary bedroom with a walk-in closet and modern en suite bathroom on the main floor (2-4 additional bedrooms upstairs!). Sellers have loved walking to both elementary and high schools and returning to their serene backyard, which is nestled in a picturesque setting. Enjoy the newly rebuilt deck that overlooks beautiful scenery, along with perennial flower bulbs and landscaping that require no maintenance.
There’s also a charming garden box along the front porch, tall tree stumps ready for sculptures, and a built-in sprinkler system in the front yard. This impressive home includes a wood-burning stove, a grill area, and a portable fire pit for outdoor entertaining. There's a fenced dog run in the backyard in addition to the welcoming atmosphere created by friendly neighbors. This home features several more upgrades: a recently remodeled kitchen, fresh paint, and modern appliances—all of which will stay, including the washer and dryer!
The house retains original charm with hardwood floors throughout, built-in shelves and drawers, dual basement stairs, and two wood-burning fireplaces. You’ll also find a walk-out unfinished basement that’s ready for your personal touch. There’s ample storage space outside for lawn equipment, leaving the attached two-car garage available for vehicles with plenty of extra space.
Regarding the neighborhood, enjoy access to a pool, library, recreation center, schools, and restaurants—all within walking distance. The friendly 61st Street is ideal for dog walking and casual strolls. Plus, with Google Fiber and a built-in Google security and temperature control system, the home benefits from excellent natural airflow during the summer, reducing the need for air conditioning.
We could go on and on about this incredible property, but instead, come see it for yourself before it’s off the market!
