An acre-plus retreat with a screened porch, fireside evenings and room to make yourself at home! Welcome to 206 Maplewood Drive, where established trees and seasonal flowering shrubs surround a four-bedroom, 2.5-bath home enhanced by thoughtful updates throughout. The outdoor spaces set this property apart. An expansive screened porch featuring Trex decking and a tongue-and-groove ceiling connects to an adjoining covered porch and additional grilling deck overlooking the private, park-like backyard. A meandering stream enhances the peaceful setting. A custom-built fire pit anchors the spacious paver patio, framed by curved seating walls and mature trees, an inviting spot for conversation long after dinner ends. From morning coffee on the screened porch to fireside evenings under the stars, there's a place to enjoy every part of the day. A welcoming covered front porch leads to refreshed interiors featuring refinished hardwoods, all-new interior paint and carpeting, updated fixtures, hardware and lighting, and all-new ceiling fans. Just off the foyer, a sun-drenched front office/flex space features a dramatic bay window that frames serene, picturesque views of the wooded front yard. The formal dining room welcomes gatherings, while the family room features a gas-log, raised hearth fireplace, built-in cabinetry and French doors leading to the welcoming screened porch.
