Satisfy your desire for a well-maintained home in a private setting complete with acreage and a barn with this exceptional property. Nestled within a quiet neighborhood, this versatile 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home has been lovingly maintained for years and possesses a host of new improvements. As of 2022/2023, it received a new roof, new siding, new impact windows and doors, new HVAC (2 zones); new water heater, new washer/dryer, new kitchen appliances and the renovation of all bathrooms. The stage is set for new owners to capitalize on these updates and improvements which should provide years of low-maintenance living. Offering 2, 160 square feet of air-conditioned living space, the home provides plenty of room for a growing family, while the 1.35-acre parcel offers endless possibilities for outdoor living, recreation, or future expansion. Upon entry, you’ll find a large living area with hardwood floors and sunset views to the west. Its high ceilings further enhance the already large space while the natural wood accents provide the warmth of traditional finishes. Astride the living room is a convenient powder room and full kitchen complete with new appliances and generous pantry. Across the hall, the spacious primary suite enjoys eastern and southern exposures and features a tastefully renovated en-suite bathroom with coastal-inspired finishes and a glass-enclosed shower. Completing the main living level are a charming breakfast nook and an interior staircase leading to the ground level. Upstairs, three generously sized guest bedrooms share a full, recently renovated bathroom at the end of the hallway. Each bedroom comfortably accommodates a full bedroom suite and enjoys peaceful sunrise views overlooking undeveloped natural island landscape. The flexible layout offers a variety of uses to suit your lifestyle, with one room currently serving as a home exercise space. The ground level below the living space is accessible via an interior staircase and features approximately 1, 440 sqft of screened-in functionality. Through the 3-bay open carport, the western portion currently serves as a workshop and is where the new washer/dryer and water heater are located. The eastern portion is appointed with emphasis on entertainment and outdoor comfort, with a functioning jacuzzi which conveys with the sale. The ground-level’s fully screened perimeter allows you to experience the benefits of outdoor living space comfortably throughout the year. Positioned at the eastern end of the parcel is a small barn built upon an intact concrete pad. Originally built with the intention of housing animals, the potential for what it could be for its new owner is vast. While repairs are needed to weatherproof the envelope, the extent to which this space is improved offers a wide range of possibilities. Whether it becomes a man-cave, she-shed or toy-barn, there’s no doubt this outbuilding will add value and functionality when completed.
