Open Houses Cancelled. A Cape to Covet !! It's the one with the Yellow Door! It's the one you've always admired as you pass by! Striking, Captivating and with a Storybook kind of quality. What you will really find astounding is the light that pours in through large Pella windows. This property draws you in from your first step onto the Pennsylvania Flagstone walk, onto the front porch with room for a rocker and into the house through the stunning yellow front door. Nothing but quality updates inside and out. The huge quartz island in the breathtaking heart of the house kitchen, made possible thanks to a thoughtful bump out in the back, will become your happy gathering spot. Don't miss the beautiful blue cabinetry there and at the dry bar with full height brick accent wall. After plenty of time in the culinary wonderland with KitchenAid appliances, sit by the fire in the living room or enjoy special light in the sunroom...also perfect for a home office. When you are ready for some time outside pass through the mud room and head to the Virginia Flagstone patio out back. Professional landscaping and new fencing enhance this outdoor oasis. Gleaming hardwood floors and staircases take you up or down. The upper level primary bedroom is an escape under the eaves grounded by hardwood floors and lit by windows on three sides. The window seat in the dormer window, with custom upholstered cushion, invites a special pause. Two secondary bedrooms also feature hardwood floors and generous closet space. The impeccable oversized full bath, with marble-topped vanity and glass tile in the tub/shower, is a spa experience waiting to happen. When it's time to hang out in casual comfort, the lower level family room is the place to be. A large window lights the space and a convenient door gives access to the expansive concrete driveway with room for two cars.
