Welcome home to this three bedroom, two bathroom split-level in Cottage Grove, minutes from local shops, dining, entertainment, and a park along the river. The city offers over 1,300 acres of park land, including Cottage Grove Ravine Regional Park, 515 acres with trails for hiking, fishing, and cross-country skiing.
The foyer offers access to the attached three car garage with storage in the rafters above the garage and the backyard, along with a spacious closet for storage. Golden oak trim carries through much of the home for a warm, inviting feel.
Upstairs, the open living space centers on a cozy bay window overlooking the backyard, with abundant natural light throughout. The kitchen offers a peninsula with seating and a picture window over an informal dining nook. The dining room sits between the living room and kitchen, with sliding glass door access to a spacious deck. The primary suite overlooks the side yard with a walk-in closet, and the second bedroom overlooks the backyard with its own walk-in closet. A full bathroom with linen storage serves this level.
A door separates the lower level, offering privacy ideal for a family room, guests, or extra distance from the main living area. The family room has lookout windows to the backyard. The third bedroom includes an egress window and lookout windows, with a 3/4 bathroom serving this level. An unfinished utility and laundry room completes the space with extended storage space under the stairs.
The fully fenced backyard includes in-ground irrigation. A neighborhood park is just down the street, with Hamlet Park a short walk further, offering trails, sport courts, ball fields, a skate park, and a playground.
