The master suite is very spacious, with room for its own sitting area in the bedroom. The carpet was updated in 2008. It has a large walk-in closet, with built-in shelves. Its private bathroom has double sinks, a vanity area, separate shower, and an oversized jacuzzi tub. This bathroom also has a newly tiled floor and lots of cabinets and drawer space.

Bedroom #2 has a private bathroom as well, with a newly tiled floor, double sinks, and a tiled shower. Bedrooms #3 and #4 share the hall bathroom, which has a single sink and full bath. All three bathrooms have built-in laundry hampers.

The living room provides plenty of space and can hold a sectional, as well as a couple of recliners. It has a tall cathedral ceiling, recessed lighting, and a brick, wood-burning fireplace, with gas line in place.

The kitchen is located just off of the living room and also has recessed lighting, plus new "high-def" Formica countertops, an electric flat top stove (1 yr), and a dishwasher (2 yr). There is a built-in eating bar that will sit six people easily. The house has a separate formal dining room too.

Additional features to the house include a large laundry/utility room and finished concrete basement. The laundry room has a built-in ironing board and cabinets above the washing machine area. It has its own closet too.

The backdoor opens up to a covered porch, which can fit two sets of tables & chairs, plus a grill. There is an attached storage room too, large enough to fit two deep freezers and a riding lawn mower. This room could double as a workshop, if needed.

In the backyard, there is a private, regulation size tennis court, with tall chain-link backstop. This concrete slab was poured over 15 years ago, but is so thick it only has a couple of hairline cracks going through it. The tennis court doubles has a basketball half-court, and there is an attached basketball goal set up too.

The backyard is cleared of trees, except for the two rows of pines that line its north & south sides for privacy. There is plenty of room to add a swimming pool on the lot, or grow a garden, play football, etc. The house is hooked up to the city water supply, but there is a water well too.

This fantastic property would be an excellent place to raise a family, or just entertain friends! It is completely move-in ready, but has enough space for the new owner to add their own touch or improvements.
