It enjoys a surprisingly private location near Lowes and the Gateway shopping complex.Sitting on a low hill at the end of a quiet lane, the home feels like it's in the country, and the deer that frequent the yard seem to agree. A sidewalk leads to the shady covered front porch with stone flooring. The front entry opens into an L-shaped living room with birch flooring and a natural gas fireplace. The living room is adjacent to an impressive 12-x20 screened porch with a ceiling fan, and a large deck perfect for outdoor meals and entertaining. The kitchen features hickory cabinetry, tile flooring and laminate counters with a double stainless-steel sink. The counters incorporate a lower one that can serve as a desk, or a handy eat-at counter. Appliances include a Kenmore gas range, a Kenmore refrigerator-freezer, and a Frigidaire dishwasher. The adjacent dining room has a chandelier, Chinese mahogany flooring, and a bay window overlooking the front yard. A hallway leads to the home's three ensuite bedrooms. The primary bedroom includes an anteroom with a closet. With the simple addition of a door, this could be converted into a private dressing area. This spacious bedroom opens to a private deck with built-in seating. The primary bath has a shower, a marble vanity and a linen closet. Bedroom 2 has a ceiling fan and a bath with a shower-tub and a marble vanity. Bedroom 3 has a bath with a shower and a solid surface vanity.
