This end unit townhome is located in the lovely community of Retreat and walking distance to Maple Dale Golf and Country Club. The owners have accented the home through out with designer detail, nothing to do but move in. It's all been done from beautiful wide plank flooring to all the spaces updated. The living room and dining room is so spacious and flows into the kitchen featuring white cabinets and epoxy countertops which are so beautiful and have flow and motion with the color variations. The stainless appliances beautifully accent the kitchen. The kitchen is illuminated with recessed lights to make this a bright space to cook. Enjoy the view through the bay window to the wooded exterior. The family room enjoys a striking view from the wall of windows to the left of the wood burning fireplace to enjoy the outdoor scenery. The two-story ceiling soars to the second level loft for more architectural detail. The first floor owner's suite is lovely with a private bath and walk in closet. Attention to detail is evident throughout. The half bath and laundry complete the first floor. Upstairs you will find two spacious bedrooms, one with a large walk-in closet and the other bedroom with a large double closet. The full bath upstairs is conveniently located. The loft overlooks the family room and is enhanced with natural light from the large windows in the family room. Just off the loft is a very large walk- in closet. There is a fourth room fully finished with heat, air, and a closet which could be used as a guest room or an office. The side entrance 2 car garage is oversized and there is also extended parking at the end of the driveway. Enjoy the private back yard, which is fenced for relaxation. The lot is beautiful and backs to the woods for year round beauty! Don't miss the opportunity to own this perfect home with all the updates you would want plus a lovely community to call home!
This home truly is a "Retreat"! Not only can you live on the golf course in Maple Dale, but in the evenings, you can relax and enjoy watching the deer walk through your wooded back yard. A creek running through the woods makes your backyard like a natural preserve. This home is beautifully maintained and also includes updated bathrooms & a customized kitchen. The family room has a cathedral ceiling and a wood burning brick fireplace. The MASTER SUITE is on the FIRST floor. There are two more bedrooms upstairs and a bonus room that could be a 4th bedroom. Each bedroom has a walk in closet with built in organizers. This property has tons of gathering space between the living room, family room, and loft. There are vaulted ceilings, bright sunlight and plenty of storage in this beautiful end unit. There is an oversized two car garage and plenty of additional parking in the driveway. There is also a laundry room with a washer and dryer for your convenience. A new roof and AC unit were installed 2 years ago. A new hot water heater was just installed and the home has been freshly painted. The seller is offering $1,000 to the buyer to go towards making the home your own. This property is all ready for a new owner!
