One of the best characteristics of this property is its great traffic pattern! The attached two car garage is handily located so that groceries / parcels are conveniently unloaded in the connecting laundry room. This utility room adjoins the newly remodeled kitchen. The eat-in kitchen then opens to the dining area, allowing the busy cook to converse with friends and family while preparing food! Sliding glass doors lead off the dining area to a rear deck allowing for easy entertaining. The dramatic ceiling in the connecting living/great room is sure to catch your eye as well as the formal gas fireplace nestled between two full length windows. The master suite on the main floor allows for privacy while two bedrooms and a full bath on the upper level provide for additional space. Newly re-carpeted basement affords another space for recreation as well as a separate area/room for office space/workout room, etc. Forsyth School just another added plus!
