Welcome Home! Renovated and expanded, this classic Tucker ranch stands out for size, condition and unique location! Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac with no through traffic, this home offers an idyllic escape from the hustle and bustle – without leaving it all behind. From the moment you step from the covered front porch into the foyer, you’ll know this house is different: Big, open rooms, beautiful finishes, surrounded by great views of nature. The updated kitchen, with maple cabinets, deep chef’s sink, newer appliances and new quartz counters overlooks the large front den, which promises to be the ultimate hangout. The back kitchen door leads to the utility room and the fenced back yard and deck.
At the front of the house are three spacious bedrooms: one has a private half bath and walk-in closet. Two other bedrooms, a full bathroom and two more closets are also part of the front wing. The beautiful living and dining room separate it from the back: Here , a large set of beautiful French doors lead to the Primary suite addition, featuring exposed brick walls hardwood floors and energy-efficient windows and doors. This space includes another living room, with decorative fireplace, built-in shelves, and private access to the deck and back yard; through this room is an equally-large bedroom with ensuite bath and a walk-in closet. This distinct and private all-brick addition makes the home perfect for sharing. Configure all the flexible spaces to whatever YOU want- formal and informal dining, game room, home offices, roommate spaces … it’s all here and ready for you! If you love the large lots and green spaces of older construction, and also love the fresh look of today – again, this is your house. Enjoy the best of old and new: mid-century brick exterior; oak hardwood floors, hardwood framing, and tiled bathrooms; all on a large, level lot.
