Down the lane, just beyond the hedgerow. .. a non-development home on 2 Acres that's "all about" spaciousness, privacy & adaptability. Mature Evergreens dot the landscape. When sea grasses grow, shrubs green & trees leaf, you'll probably have to remind yourself "I DO have neighbors. " Due to siting of house, an extraordinary amount of open, level space offers lots of possibilities. A Garden? Putting Green? A good book under the shade tree? Are you a tinkerer? Wood worker? Small boat owner? An over-sized "shed" in need of repair has potential - concrete floor, over-head Garage Door, non-operational wiring. A good word to describe the home's interior is "hybrid. " For Traditionalists, Formal Living and Dining Rooms. Prefer casual? "Flex" the functions- Home Office, Play Area, Game Room, Library, get-away Den. .. The workhorse Kitchen & FR are 2 distinct areas yet visually open to allow interaction with family & friends during daily activities & casual entertaining. One person preparing a gourmet dinner or "All hands on deck" helping to throw together a mid-week supper, everyone will be comfortable in this space, chopping, sauteing & cleaning up together. Hobbyist? Crafter? You'll enjoy the work space & storage in the Laundry Room. The 2nd Floor could be adaptable in a variety of ways if needed. Utilize the floored Attic over the garage; grab some space from the large MBR. No worries with either. There's a 2nd Attic for storage ( & a full, unfinished basement) & still enough MBR sq. ft. to create a luxurious bath. Spacious, flexible & Move-in ready. A Short List of some improvements the past 2 years: Foremost, operating systems, Main Bath, Laundry, New Flooring thru-out both levels. Some lighting, sink fixtures, appliances & fresh paint. SEE BROCHURE IN PROPERTY FOR MORE INFO. Locals & newcomers alike enjoy the quality of life in Middletown. From the Olde Thyme Peach Festival to the irreverent New Year's Day Hummers Parade, there's something for everyone. If you're searching for a peaceful environment, a place to recharge & regroup at the end of a hectic day yet need the convenience of quick & easy access to services, amenities & major roadways, look closely at 1266 Cedar Lane. You're minutes away from conveniences but a world apart from it all. Unhurried times. Hay rides, Cowgirl's Creamery. .. a place pre-school thru 8th grade youngsters can still skip to school. .. just beyond the hedgerow & down the lane. It will be a wonderful place to call "home. "
