Everyone will be amazed by the fresh, clean look of this well cared for property that has been upgraded by the current owners who capitalized on the natural light this home was designed to receive. Tree removal enhanced the sunlight that flows through all the over sized windows and doors. Walls were moved and were painted white along with the high ceilings and the hardwood floors were refinished on both levels. Upon entering there is a two-story grand foyer with an open staircase and catwalk, while a private study with handsome wood paneled walls is to the left. Straight ahead is a two-story living room with an open floor plan into the family room making for flexible living space. The rooms across the back of the house which include the eat-in kitchen, living room, dining room, family room and rear study all offer French doors that open onto the newly refinished open-air deck. Additionally, a guest suite is located on the first level (the adjacent rear study could be converted into a 5th bedroom making a second Jack-N-Jill). Upstairs offers a front-to-back master suite with sitting area, master bath and walk-in closet; across the catwalk is a private Jack-N-Jill suite with a renovated bathroom. The lower level is finished into a large open space that can accommodate fun and games with a separate storage area. The mudroom just off the garage is ready to hold sports equipment, book bags and brief cases. A new Carrier top-of-the-line Infinity HVAC system has been installed in 2011, along with the finest whole house water filtration system with reverse osmosis by Kinetico. Located in Johnson Park School District, walking distance to town and restaurants. Seller can accommodate a quick close.
