    What's special

    Large two car garageLong well-paved drivewayPrivate woodsLarge deckHuge deckLarge family roomOld growth trees
    Welcome to 138 Countryside Lane, AKA the "Silver Maple House", named for the old growth trees that surround the 7.29 acre private lot. As you drive into the secluded neighborhood of Countryside Farms you'll realize that this isn't like other neighborhoods. Instead of rows of cookie cutter homes you drive past the other large private lots that are well maintained, something rare to find north of the Canal. Upon arriving at 138 you'll see a beautiful exterior and long well-paved driveway. Whether you are a contractor looking for a place to park your work truck, or the designated family host of Thanksgiving dinner you'll have plenty of space for parking. You also have the benefit of a large two car garage perfect for protecting your vehicles, a workshop or extra storage. As you walk up to the front door you'll notice that the exterior is in perfect condition, built in 1965 this house stands strong and proud with its original red brick. They truly don't make them like they used to. Entering you'll be greeted by a large family room and to the left the dining room that leads right in to the kitchen at the center of the house. It's location next to the breezeway is perfect for bringing in groceries, never having to lug them in the rain again. The powder room is close by right by the stairs that leads to a fully finished basement, perfect for football games, a playroom for family members or a hobbyist's getaway. Back upstairs you'll find the living room with access to the large deck via glass sliding doors and windows that picture-frame the beautiful wooded estate. This huge deck is perfect for entertaining or lounging in adirondack chairs after a hards days work. You'll also find the three well sized bedrooms and full bath on the first floor, no need to go up and down the stairs every night. This house was well loved by three generations of the same family, but it's ready for a new owner to take over and add their own love and personality to the home. From the private woods with a creek running through it to play by, to the first floor living layout, this is a hard-to-find single floor living home. Schedule your tour today!
