Close Country with City Water and City Sewer! What a treat this home on 2.5 acres is! Appreciate an Open floor plan from the minute you walk in. There is a large breakfast bar just off the dining area that is great for quick meals together or serving up a feast. The deck with access to your yard is close by for grilling and hanging in your private yard. The kitchen is updated nicely and has a contemporary feel with stainless appliances and a tiled backsplash. Light shines in; your plants (and you (: ) will love this oversized living room with built-ins. A sunroom off the back of the home is a great place to cozy up with a book and enjoy your treed view of your yard. Upstairs you'll find 2 bedrooms and a full bathroom with double sinks. Don't miss the fun "hang out space" above! The owners suite has a door to the shared bathroom and laundry is on this level too, so convenient! Downstairs there is a Rec Space with an egress window, bar area, bathroom and a bedroom too. This home was re-built from the foundation up in 2006 and has newer mechanicals to include an air to air exchange. There is ABC Seamless metal siding on the house. The forced air furnace was replaced in 2023 and has a warranty that will transfer to a new owner. Outside there is an oversized 2-car garage, garden areas for growing your own food, lilac bushes, raspberries, apple trees, a fire pit, shed, trails and more to explore! A second driveway is an added perk and the wood fired sauna is the icing on the cake. Natural gas is available at the street. You are so close to town at this oasis of a home, come check out the leaves too, they are POPPING! Schools are Home Croft, Ordean and East High School.
