    What's special

    White kitchen cabinetsEnormous laundry roomThree-season enclosed breezewayAccent flooring
    For those looking for a charming dollhouse in the heart of Fern Creek that still offers space to stretch out, welcome to 5501 Tealeaf Court. Situated on a cul-de-sac, entering through the front door offers a lovely welcome. Just inside, the living room, dining space, and kitchen have been opened up by a previous owner, allowing this entire living space to feel light, bright, airy, and extremely livable. Three bedrooms are at the end of the hall, surrounding a comfortably updated hall bath, while back in the main living area, white kitchen cabinets and accent flooring anchor this workspace while built-ins in the dining area provide a natural buffet for dining gatherings of any size. Just beyond, step down into a family room that provides a cozy space for home office or secondary living space. The fireplace here provides a comfortable focal point, while the sunken room itself feels like a cozy den to snuggle into for movie nights. Just beyond, a three-season enclosed breezeway is presently used as a play space, but could operate in the future as a third living area or home office during Kentucky's temperate seasons. This space opens to a small, enclosed deck on one side, insulated away from the street, but opens on the other to the side yard and concrete patio. Through here, an enormous laundry room is pulling double duty as a home office, and opens to a full bath. The oversized two car garage has a side entry, as well as workshop space in the rear. Easy access to the Gene Snyder from either Billtown or Bardstown Roads, and situated close to the exceptional commerce on the southern end of our city. Thoughtfully updated it over the years, and exceptionally well maintained, this sweet home will be one of the best buys in the area.
