Meticulously maintained U-shaped ranch oozes with charm balanced by modern updates. Nestled between "sister houses," it was originally built for the father of the brothers who owned them. The brick was reclaimed from a demolition in Middletown, and the wideboard wood flooring in the kitchen/dining room was reclaimed as well. A stand of mature cedar trees coupled with a deep set-back affords maximum privacy. Immediately upon entering the home, you'll feel the warmth of the sun-drenched living room featuring a large stained-glass window (one of several, all of which have outer storms), brick fireplace, and topped with Velux skylights. Off the living room is access to the granite slab patio with built-in fountain. The left wing of the home is where you'll find the kitchen/dining area, large enough for gatherings. Off the kitchen is a walk-in pantry with washer/dryer hookup leading into the half bath with stand-up shower. The right wing houses the bedrooms and full bath with tub/shower combo. Inside the primary bedroom you'll find custom blinds, and a ductless mini split installed in 2014 that has been used for cooling most of the house. The third bedroom has been used as a den and does not have a closet. Outside the home, attention to detail continues; the shed has power, the garden has water, and the detached garage was built in 2014. Additional upgrades include a new roof in '15, gutters in '16, Harvey custom replacement windows in '16, and a Harvey 3-panel slider in '18.
