    Spacious and full of natural light, this delightful home in the heart of Littlebrook is ready for its new owners. Leading into the living room, from the foyer, the large picture window provides wonderful views of the front yard. The gas fireplace provides a great focal point of the room and the wood mantel and surround provides a classic touch. Beyond the living room is the large family room, which is home to the second fireplace in the home, this time a wood burning one. The delightful sun room, off the family room, provides a quiet nook for reading or for just relaxing whilst surveying the lush backyard. The glass French doors provide privacy without losing any natural light. The kitchen is truly the heart of this home. The bay window in the breakfast area, provides a delightful view of the blue stone patio and rear yard. The island provides even more seating as well as extra counter space for serving or for meal prep. Cabinetry is plentiful, and a pantry provides even more storage. Do not miss the instant hot water faucet- a must for any tea drinker! A door to the rear blue stone patio makes outdoor entertaining a breeze too. In a separate wing of the home, there are three bedrooms, including the primary suite and a hall bath. The primary bedroom has its own ensuite bath with a tub/shower combo and vanity. The two other bedrooms in this wing share a hall bath with another tub/shower combo and double vanity. Do not miss the linen closet, for even more storage. On the second floor is even more living space. A charming sitting room with built in book cases and storage. There is also another bedroom on this level, and it has its own private bath too. The basement is unfinished and provides lots of storage space and there is a two car attached garage too! Red oak hardwood flooring is throughout most of the home too! A great home in a great neighborhood. Close to the elementary school. See it today!
