About this home

Conveniently located in a great location close to town. Extensively rebuilt in 2004 with many amenities added. The welcoming front porch beckons you into the home, and the gracious entry foyer entices you in further. The formal living room enjoys the views of the front yard. The kitchen is truly the heart of the home. Well designed with stainless steel appliances, white painted cabinetry and granite counter tops. The breakfast bar serves double duty as a great area to sit as well as more counter space and serving area for the breakfast area beyond. The breakfast area has a fireplace which adds a unique touch and there is also access to the rear yard. Through double doors, there is the family room which has access to the full bath located on the first floor. To complete the first floor is a bedroom which also has access to the full bath. The second floor is home to two private suites, each with their own baths and walk-in closets. The laundry is also located there. There are French doors that access a front balcony. The basement is unfinished for storage; it has been water-proofed with French drains and 2 sump pumps and was completely dry during a recent hurricane. Outside is a large patio and both front and back yards are tastefully landscaped. Note the lighting throughout the rear yard, the fish pond and the two rain gardens that are not only a delight to look at but also provide drainage for both the front and back yards! To the rear of the yard is a one car detached garage and the hidden surprise of a finished space, currently being used as an office but could be a gym or even man - cave, use your imagination. Access to the garage and parking is off the lane from Franklin Ave. Great home in a great location, convenient to schools, downtown, municipal center and University!
