Get ready to fall in love with this incredibly unique and luxurious urban oasis! There is nothing like this on the market and the attention to detail, unique architectural features and charm will take your breath away. From the moment you pull up to this stunning extra wide single family home situated on a mature tree-filled quiet one way street, you'll picture yourself making this your retreat from the world. Located in the sought-after Coonley School District, this beautiful open floor plan was made for entertaining friends and family. Walking in the home, you will note the strikingly beautiful open staircase leading you to each level of the home. Built with multiple areas in mind for rest, play and work--the separation of space on three distinct levels allows for an incredible variety of scenarios from related living to that home gym you've always dreamed of, the garden and back yard you've wished for, and the space to expand and blossom. And blossom you will, because this one-owner home was lovingly cared for and improved with perennial flowers and trees a landscaper would be envious of and just planted last year...fresh paint and carpet in the jaw dropping recreation room on the lower level (which has a beautiful wet bar and mini-kitchen for those movie nights and built-in custom book and storage shelves for all sorts of fun pursuits); gleaming oak floors in all other living areas and bedrooms. Let's expand on those living areas--the room sizes, oversized closets and beaming natural light from multiple exposures are a game-changer versus other existing homes on the market. This truly feels like new construction with the best of old-world charm. The finishes and fixtures are out of a magazine, with a fully equipped chef's grade kitchen with tremendous cabinet and counter space, a massive quartz center island people will gravitate to, double ovens, Bosch appliances and more. You can see the roaring low-profile extra long fireplace from every corner on the main level, which also features a powder room so guests are not troubled to go up or down a level during dinners or gatherings. Another brilliant touch of this floor plan is that the laundry room is on the upper level by 3 of the bedrooms, but there is a utility room and sink in the lower level with the potential to add another washer/dryer for the two bedrooms and full bath on the lower level. Speaking of the bathrooms, all 3 baths and the half bath powder room are spa-quality, and the primary suite bathroom features a jaw-dropping shower and soaking tub wet room, body sprays, radiant heated floor and a vaulted ceiling to match the vaulted ceiling in the enormous primary bedroom (with room for a king sized bed and full set of furniture, and a juliet balcony overlooking the back yard garden and massive back deck). The second upper level bathroom wasn't overlooked either, with double sinks and a soaker tub you'd only find in most primary suites elsewhere. Yet another unique charm of this home is a true "sitting" front porch with room for furniture so you can sip your morning coffee overlooking the lovingly maintained, landscaped front yard. While each area of this home will steal a piece of your heart, the utility and versatility will capture your mind. The a/c is dual zoned, the oversized 2 car garage has additional storage, and the yard is virtually maintenance-free and sustainable by design. Two entrances to the back yard and gazebo with a mud room and coat/storage area in one make inclement weather a breeze. Parks, Riverbank Neighbors intimate walking trail, fine dining, highway and transit nearby--but you may never want to leave home again.
