Looking for a convenient location to Sherwood, I-12, Airline Hwy and more plus great space with minimal work needed? Look no further. Located in Afton Oaks, this home is easily accessible from both Sherwood Forest or from S Harrell’s Ferry through Woodland Ridge. Built in 1985, this Victorian 2-story home comes complete with all the expected design styles from a large front porch, unique pentagon-shaped formal dining room, custom windows and more. Entering the front door, step down and to your left to enjoy the lofty, spacious living room with lots of windows, gas log fireplace plus a tucked away wet bar or coffee bar. Stepping down and to the right you experience the pentagon-shaped formal dining room also with great natural light and access to the kitchen. The kitchen has been updated with cherry cabinets, granite counters, step-in pantry, center island and includes a separate ice machine. Sharing the same space is the breakfast room with doors to the back patio and covered walk to the garage. The laundry room is tucked just off the kitchen and breakfast rooms. Back to the left of the stairwell is the guest powder room/half bath just before you enter the first-floor master suite. The master retreat includes custom wood plantation shutters, vaulted ceiling plus easy access to the back porch. The updated ensuite bathroom features matching cherry cabinets to the kitchen, granite counters, dual vanities, a large custom shower plus a private water closet (toilet room). Upstairs you will find the 3 additional bedrooms with great closets and the second full bath with separate toilet/tub area so the sinks can still be used by others. Outside the detached garage includes additional storage/shop space, a fully fenced backyard plus a whole house generator (that recently came in very handy with Ida). This home does not require flood insurance & did not flood in 2016 or 2021. With some fresh paint and new carpet - this home is waiting for you to call it home!
