The offer deadline is Sunday at noon. Here is a cherished one-owner home that exudes charm & the loving care of its family. The cottage-style interior features beamed cathedral ceilings, oversized rooms, & diamond-patterned windows. Add your personal decorating touch & this will be your home for generations to come. With over 700 sq ft of porches, it is a delight to bask in privacy & enjoy the specimen redbuds, magnolias, & crepe myrtles, to watch children climb rocks & trees with ample room for rousing games in the 2.24 acre yard. 5220 Stephens Lane was originally constructed by a builder for his family, but when the current owner left the military & fell in love with the home, the builder couldn't resist. The workmanship is a testament to unrivaled quality. Recent improvements include a sealed crawlspace & a replaced HVAC system. The light fixtures in the family room are being changed to recessed lighting. The garage has only one door, but there is ample room to add another automobile door & still have workshop space.
