New septic system to be installed by seller! Complete privacy is what you will find when you arrive at the top of the driveway of this serene 1.74-acre lot. Surrounded by trees and tasteful landscaping, this handsome home was completely transformed in 2009. What was once a 2-bedroom home is now a spacious 3-bedroom home with 2290 square feet of living space. The addition included a family room, office nook, primary suite with attached bath and dual walk-in closets and a tidy basement for added storage. The result is a wonderful open floor plan. Right in the middle of the action between the family room and the dining room, the modern kitchen boasts granite countertops, a breakfast bar, an oversized pantry and updated appliances. The sunken living room is in the original part of the home. This light filled room has vaulted ceilings, skylights and a brick fireplace as a focal point. Gleaming wood floors make this room feel warm and inviting. Two bedrooms are down the hall. The larger bedroom has a walk-in closet and private access to the shared bath. A guest bath is right off of the kitchen. The hallway’s superpower is storage. Three closets for storage and one for laundry will help keep you organized. The family room is a casual spot for relaxing. Something about the large windows, skylights, vaulted ceilings and sliding doors to the deck makes this room feel like a sunroom. It is open and spacious and bright. An office nook sits right outside of the primary suite. This suite offers a private retreat from the rest of the house. Take a hot bath in the jetted tub or jump in the separate shower. Two walk-in closets provide ample space for all of your clothes. The exterior of this home is all about fun. The deck and fenced-in backyard is the place to entertain, but this wooded lot is for exploring. The firepit area, gazebo, sheds and surrounding woods provide plenty of reasons to be outside. This tranquil retreat is minutes from KSU and I-76, so your commute is a breeze.
