Sometimes it takes awhile for a property to come into its own, and the exquisite offering of 5403 North Barbara Drive is no exception. Thirty eight years ago the owner and her family moved into what was a much smaller scale of a typical 1970's Ranch Style abode. Over the course of the next few decades, the metamorphosis realized the full potential of the structure, adding an entire wing, re-configuring the Kitchen and Dining Areas, and updating nearly every facet of the interior. This peerless standout in the neighborhood offers a Genteel introduction, with Mature Lilac Bushes embracing one border and a soaring Pondarosa Pine as its focal point. The hand-laid rock landscaped beds and the Window Box Floral arrangements offer beauty and the promise of an elegant, affordable offering! Rich, Quarter-Sawn, Red Oak Flooring offers warmth and a tasteful introduction to the spacious Dining area, that is anchored by a custom-designed Bayed Window, and a region that segues nicely into the fully remodeled Kitchen, with a Breakfast Bar as the conduit. The addition of a spacious and gracious Formal Living Room added not only some serious square footage, but the inclusion of floor to ceiling windows and Sliding Glass door also added access to the rear deck. The smallest of the bedrooms is currently utilized as a Home Office and a secondary bedroom is tucked discretely around the corner, offering fabulous privacy. The Master Bedroom is a study in chic design and good taste and offers a Walk-In Closet. The Hall Bathroom underwent the most extreme make over, offering custom tiled flooring, Counters, a Jacuzzi Tub and a Tile/Glass Shower....Luxurious in every sense of the word! The lower level is fully finished, offering the 4th Bedroom, a Full Sized, Tiled Bathroom with a Shower and Laundry Facilities tucked behind folding closet doors. A large Family Room offers plenty of space to relax, and a gas stove warms the region in the cooler months. The crowning achievement of this 38 year old estate is most certainly the back yard in all of its glorious greenery. Pebbled pathways wind around a Distinctive Waterfall feature and lead to a large, Paver Stone Patio. The grounds are punctuated with Native Grasses, Lush Ground Cover, and Flowering Beds throughout the spacious, 11, 848' lot (Underground Sprinklers included!) For the Seller and her family, they loved that the Kids could walk to the Florence K-12 Schools. No kids? No problem. Walk to Glen's Cafe and a have a piece of their Famous Homemade Pie! The drive into Missoula is about 20 minutes, and of course, with the scenic Bitterroot Mountain Valley right out your back door, the recreational opportunities are limitless. Please call your Realtor today to schedule a showing of this exceptional offering. Homes of this caliber, in the price point don't often come along, but when they do, they don't often languish on the market.
