Nestled in an enclave of patio homes with terrific floorplans, this has beautifully detailed landscape, almost all of the exterior siding replaced with hardie plank, a wrought iron front gate to private sidewalk to entry, specimen crape myrtles, and easy pull-in double driveway for side access garage. This home exudes pride of ownership. New electrical panel installed this week is just one example of how careful the homeowner maintains this property. HVAC since 2011, and water heater within one year. Open and dramatic Living Room has 13 ft plus high ceilings with clerestory windows and two ceiling fans and wood-burning fireplace. Kitchen has a remarkable amount of storage coupled with clever breakfast bar overlooking atrium. Both bedrooms have ceiling fans and french doors leading to the outside. Truly unusual amount of storage for a home of this vintage coupled with the open and light filled floorplan makes it a compelling purchase!

Patio-Cluster Residential District
This residential district provides higher density of single-family detached housing which can be placed on smaller lots and clustered about cul-de-sac streets with adjoining common open space provided for the residents' recreational and open space use. This district allows for flexibility of placement of the dwelling unit on the lot and can allow for the enclosure of patio areas by walls or fences. This district should be located near collector thoroughfares to accommodate the higher density of population that can occur.
