Description

Go ahead and count the bedrooms, then the baths, then look at the price and count them again. Five and three, renovated top to bottom on a corner lot. And no, there isn’t a catch. You don’t have to take my word for it. Give your agent a call and schedule a time to see it for yourself. Just do it soon, because a house of this caliber, at this price, is exactly what other buyers are counting on too. Until then, let me give you the tour. We’ll start out front, where the first thing you’ll notice is the stand of towering pines overhead. A covered porch runs the length of the front, and the driveway swings in from the side street to a two-car garage, so guests have room to park and your cars stay out of the way. That freshly laid sod is thick enough that you’ll want to take your shoes off and walk it barefoot. And that’s just what you see from the curb. Step inside, and you’ll see right away how open this floor plan is. The living room, dining room, family room, and kitchen all flow into one another, with no wasted hallways or awkward transitions. Up front, the living room opens straight into the dining room, where there’s space under the chandelier for the whole family. Move quickly and you could be settled in time to host Christmas weekend here. Head toward the back and you’ll find the family room, built around a painted brick fireplace with a rough-hewn wood mantel. Picture the first cold night in December: logs settling and popping, the brick holding the warmth, and everyone wandering in here without being asked. Then there’s the kitchen. One wall is all slate shaker cabinets, granite counters, white subway tile, and a stainless French door refrigerator. Across from it, the island holds the gas range under a stainless and glass vent hood, with seats for four on the far side, so whoever’s cooking is facing the room. Homework, snacks, and conversation all happen within arm’s reach. You’ll know the sound soon enough: the click of the burner, the blue flame catching, coffee going before anyone else is up. Just past the fridge, a breakfast area sits by the garage door, so groceries come straight in, and a separate laundry room keeps the mess out of sight. Down the hall, the primary bedroom has a walk-in closet and its own bath, with a tiled shower, a hex mosaic floor, a recessed shelf, and a granite vanity. The other two bedrooms share a hall bath with a window over the tub, so you get daylight and a little green while you’re getting ready, which starts a Tuesday morning off right. In the bedrooms, early sun slips through the blinds and lays stripes across the floor, the kind of light that gets you up before the alarm does. Now follow me downstairs, because this is where the house earns its price. There’s a carpeted rec room, two more bedrooms, and a full bath with a tiled walk-in shower, so it works like a second home inside the first. Whether you need an in-law suite, a home office, or a place for the guest who stays longer than planned, it’s ready. Everyone gets a corner of their own, and nobody’s waiting on a bathroom. Open the French doors and the patio air comes in, cut grass and pine on the breeze. Out back, the wood deck sits off the family room, which makes it the natural spot for the grill, and a privacy fence wraps the yard under mature trees. On a crisp winter evening, the grill hisses and the smoke drifts up into the pines. If you’ve got dogs, plural, this yard is already set up for them. So, about that catch. I looked for one too. Honestly, I walk a lot of renovations, and most of them have a corner cut somewhere, usually right where you won’t notice until you’ve lived there a year. I couldn’t find one here. Everything you see in the photos is new, inside and out, and so is what you can’t see, like the HVAC and water heater. All of it was done the way I’d want it done in my own house. The seller did this right, and priced it to get your attention. You’ve read enough. Trust your own eyes over adjectives.
