You MUST SEE this much-loved, well-kept home! Before entering the kitchen, a large, inviting, cathedral-ceilinged master bedroom with fireplace awaits. A sliding door leads to the screened-in porch (with sturdy pet screen), with its Coolaroo shade and complementary floor covering that overlooks the 18x36 in-ground pool. Decks for relaxing and enjoying the yard lie on two sides of the pool, and an adorable shed sits at the far end of the yard. There is plenty of room for cooking and/or entertaining in the large, updated kitchen with lots of storage space. There are French doors leading from the kitchen to the well-laid-out living room, with a wall-to-wall built-in bookcase at one end, and lovely wood-burning fireplace at the other. The picture window overlooks a blossom-filled, brightly-colored rhododendron bush that is a magnet for bumblebees in spring and summer. From the living room, a hallway has a bedroom on one end and a room that can serve as office space or den on the other. In between both lies the updated bathroom with jetted tub. Enjoy the sunset evenings on the screen porch! Other recent updates include a new furnace in 2021, and roof in 2023. Convenient location to schools, shopping, I-89 and more.
