BACK ON THE MARKET- BUYER COULD NOT GET A MORTGAGE. This absolute gem, stepped in luxurious surfaces and stylish detailing worthy of the pages of an interior design magazine, offers the convenience of the City and the proximity to the lush greenery of Montgomery County. The home has been lovingly crafted, with no expense spared. The lighting fixture by the front door sets the whimsical mood, as you enter this spectacular abode. The open floorplan draws the eye to the dramatic gourmet kitchen, with build-in stainless steel appliances, a coveted convection oven feature and a dramatic quartz-clad island, with room to accommodate a professional chef. The dreamy lighting fixture above the island invokes a magical forest, or an evening sky. There is an expansive deck off the kitchen to complete the first floor. The intricate stairway will take you upstairs, to 3 spacious bedrooms and a striking marble bath. Downstairs, at street level, you will find a fully finished walkout basement, compete with a full 4th bedroom and a luxurious full bath with a heated floor, as an extra luxurious touch. This area can serve as living quarters for an additional child, an in-law suite or a retreat for an older parent. Beware: once you enter, you will never want to leave! One final note: the windows, the doors. the HVAC, the heater and the hot water heater are brand new . The roof has been updated .
