This charming Tudor style home is tucked away within Pine Hills Estates on a private 1.6-acre corner lot. Designed and built in 1997 by a local architect for his personal residence, this tastefully updated home spans 3197 SF, with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 fully updated baths. The cozy cottage impression creates a welcome home feeling the moment you step inside. The modern LVP wide plank flooring flows throughout most of the home. To the left of the foyer is a short hallway where you will find the half bath; and beyond that is the hallway that connects the 2CG with the laundry room. Best features include a granite countertop, utility sink, floating shelves for open storage and 3 large storage closets that span the length of the room. Adjacent to the laundry room is the kitchen. The kitchen was updated in 2016 to reflect neutral soft-white painted cabinets; you will find granite counters, a built-in convection microwave, a GE Profile convection oven, a corner pantry, and in the center island, a separate gas cooktop. With two skylights the kitchen remains light and bright throughout the day. Just past the nook is the dining room, which features a set of French doors that open onto the enclosed Florida room. Add’l features include crown molding and a corner dry bar with floating display shelves. The comfortable family room is adjacent to the nook and kitchen, complete with a floor-to-ceiling stacked stone gas fireplace. One of 3 in the home, the fireplace is flanked by wood built-ins. The windows that face the rear yard each have one-way, see through roller shade blinds. The secondary family room is located to the right of the foyer. This spacious area features the home’s 2nd gas FP, updated with a modern marble surround and wood stained mantle. With doors on each side of the fireplace that open onto the FL room, the flow of the home lends itself for casual living and formal entertaining. Just down the bedroom hallway are 2 generous size guest rooms that share an updated hallway bathroom. As you enter the master wing, on the left is the remodeled en suite bathroom, complete with his-and-her vanities, water closet and a glass enclosed step-in shower. No need to argue about who gets which closet! There are 2 walk-in closets, both outfitted with California Closet systems. The home’s 3rd gas FP is located in the master; opposite the master FP are large windows overlooking the private rear yard. Located within the master wing, the home office space has its own French door for privacy and west facing windows for natural light. Connecting the family room, dining space, secondary living room and master via separate French doors is the enclosed 280 SF FL room. In addition to the 3197 SF of a/c space, there is an entire wall of operable windows and a single door which offer direct views of the open-air wood deck and acreage beyond. The entire rear yard is scattered with mature landscaping, hardwood trees, and flowing bushes; and best of all…completely private. On the SW corner of the home is an exterior accessed 110 SF storage room. Just beyond the wood deck on the east side is a charming storage shed for additional storage potential. If you’re concerned about major mechanical costs…. put those worries aside! Additional updates include a 2016 repipe, 2019 exterior paint, 2019 roof, 2020 HVAC system replacements, and a 2021 drain field, and an uninterrupted termite bond that renews next Feb.
