From the moment you arrive at this quintessential brick-front colonial, nestled in a picturesque cul-de-sac, you'll be captivated. The location is ideal, situated within a serene neighborhood on a private .79-acre lot. It belongs to the highly sought-after Red Clay school district, with North Star Elementary as its feeder school. Elevated slightly from the street, the property welcomes you with a beautifully manicured front lawn. The current owners have meticulously updated the home, ensuring it's ready for its next chapter. Upon entering, the home's generous size is immediately apparent, thanks to thoughtful bump-outs and extensions in its original design. The expansive, welcoming foyer features an elegant side staircase. To the right, you'll find an oversized formal living room with a wood-burning fireplace and an abundance of windows overlooking the front yard. To the left, an equally impressive dining room awaits. The kitchen has been remodeled with high-quality cabinets, countertops, and appliances. It offers maximum cabinet space with pull-out and soft-close drawers, an extended island, and a built-in desk area. This gourmet kitchen is a chef's and baker's delight. The breakfast area offers lovely views of the side and rear yards, with a sliding glass door leading to the rear deck, perfect for enjoying the privacy and nature, including a variety of birds. The step-down family room at the back of the home features vaulted ceilings, oversized windows that flood the space with natural light, and a classic floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace with a hearth. This room leads to a large screened-in patio, ideal for spring and summer enjoyment. The first floor also includes a fifth bedroom, currently used as an office, and a full bathroom, offering a convenient first-floor bedroom option with a main-floor laundry. Upstairs, the hardwood staircase leads to an inviting and expansive bedroom area. Each room (4 total upstairs) provides ample space for your bedroom furniture plus much more. The hallway is extra wide with a large hall closets and linen closets in the bathrooms. All bathrooms have been upgraded. The primary bedroom serves as an oversized retreat that will be sure to fit any size furniture with an additional vanity and sink outside the main bathroom, a large walk-in closet, and a walk-in shower. A laundry chute adds extra convenience. Need more storage space? The walk-up attic offers plenty of storage. The finished basement adds an additional 900 square feet of finished living area with laminate flooring and well-done drop ceilings. There's also a workshop and storage area with access stairs that lead to the oversized 2-car side entry garage. Notable updates throughout the home include a new roof, an updated natural gas furnace that is on an annual service plan, a brand-new septic system installed this spring (with a drain field positioned for a potential future inground pool), a speaker system in the kitchen and family room, and much more. Crown moldings, chair rails, pendant and recessed lighting, and beautiful flooring throughout add to the home's charm. Come visit, stay a while, and fall in love!
