Set on a private, serene park-like, .28 acre lot, the interior of this 4 bdrm/3ba 2363sf home draws instant attention with the eye-catching luxury of its impressive down stairs living areas. Beautiful parquet, genuine wood, flooring adorns the spacious sun-splashed living room, compliments of a large, beautiful bay window sporting high-end wooden shutters. A cozy fireplace embraces the generous, comfortable sitting area, adding warmth to those chilly, after-work evenings. Adjacently located is a welcoming dining area with easy access to the recently remodeled kitchen, which boasts quartz countertops, smartly matching backsplash, new appliances, attractive tile flooring, and a well-placed kitchenette area granting easy access to the family room/den; this haven also includes a second fireplace offering another escape to enjoy a warm, cozy fire on those cooler evenings, or an ideal gathering spot for those special social occasions. Glass sliding doors allow for easy access to the outdoor patio and dining areas and further out, on to the "vacationland" back yard - the entire downstairs living areas share a unified theme of impressive trim crown molding, high-end wooden shutters and parquet wood flooring. Additional features on this first floor are a private half bath/powder room, a spacious utility room, and access to the garage, facilitating transport of groceries to the kitchen! The upper level boasts four bedrooms, highlighted by the primary bedroom located privately at one end of the hall/walkway - it is richly accented with a luxurious, recently renovated primary bathroom showing off its sparkling new quartz countertop accompanied by a roomy, sleek, color-coordinated shower! Another special attraction is the main guest bedroom with its double-veiled window dressing allowing filtered levels of light. One of the bedrooms is presently set up as an office with a birds eye view of the flora and fauna-filled back yard/pool area. The welcoming front yard curb appeal teases a walk into the back yard, opening up into an oasis of tranquility and peace - and much summertime fun! Well chosen greenery surrounds the back yard pool and spa, a choice of sitting areas, and the patio/outdoor dining area! An added feature of value includes a leased solar system ( installed 2 years ago) with a back up battery.
