A mid-century ranch on the banks of Hospital Creek, this burst of color offers a sweet surprise inside. Once a warren of small rooms, the heart of the house is now wide open with windows everywhere - looking out to the creek and marsh with a long view of the Vilano Bridge off in the distance. With an eastern exposure, the sunrises here are stunning and you can put in your canoe or kayak and do some exploration. It may be possible to have a small dock so you can keep a little motor craft as well. Measuring 17' x 12', the kitchen has a wall of windows on the east and north walls so you can enjoy the beauty of the setting as you exercise your culinary skills. The northeast corner has a spot just waiting for a small table under the windows, where you'll be bathed in natural light. New cabinets have an antiqued finish and all the appliances have been replaced in the past three years. The dining area is between the kitchen and gathering room and the door to the screened porch is right there so you can enjoy the breeze and easily move from indoors to outdoors. A brick fireplace anchors the gathering room and you'll look forward to those chilly nights so you can light the fire and enjoy it. The common area is spacious so there are several options for furniture groupings to suit your need and there's a handy half bath tucked in an out-of-way corner. The bedrooms are laid out on the south side of the house with the master on the east end looking over the yard and marsh. A vintage full bath separates the master from the two guest rooms at the front of the house. Wood floors run throughout except in the vintage bathrooms which have their original floor and wall tile. Recessed lights in the common areas keep things simple and well illuminated and the back of the fireplace makes a nice architectural feature facing the dining room and kitchen. The screened porch measures 20' x 10' and you can enjoy it even on a rainy day. Step down and there's a flagstone patio waiting for someone to light up the grill and there's another small seating area on the banks of the little creek. Located in Nelmar Terrace, a neighborhood known for its beautiful tree canopy and diversity of architectural styles dating back to 1912, this is a great spot to hang your hat. Owners have replaced the roof, windows, HVAC and had electrical system updated so most of the heavy lifting is done. There's even room for a workshop in the oversized single garage. Come see for yourself!
