Built in 1976, when homes had spacious bedrooms, this 2,259 sq. ft. 3-bedroom, 2-bath brick traditional style home offers tremendous opportunities for families who need more living space, but also desire wide-open outdoor spaces for their children or grandchildren to play. Complete with well, septic, water softener and much more, this home is ready to go! And what about those 4-H or FFA projects? Here, your students can become involved, and be able to keep their animal projects at home!

FRONT ENTRY brings you into the very functional entry hall on a tile floor before reaching the carpeted living room. This carpet-saving feature allows the removal of wet or muddy foot & outerwear without having to remain outside.

INVITING 26x18 LIVING AREA has two focal points. As you enter this spacious room, you immediately see the large bay window. But the second focal point is to your left; a warm, terra cotta-colored brick wood-burning fireplace grabs your attention. Equipped with metal box and blower fan, it has a large matching brick hearth that provides space for your tools, but also ample seating while enjoying the fire. The hearth makes a wrapping turn on each side toward great built-ins; a 4-door wood cabinet and upper shelves on the left, and full shelves on the right. These are great for hidden storage and for your collectibles or favorite classic books. The living room can easily accommodate a full sectional sofa (or separate seating components), a reading chair & table lamp, a coffee table, and big screen television atop a media center. All this without being cramped in the least! This is truly a place for family gatherings.

BREAKFAST / DINING AREA - 8 x 11 - features a pop with pistachio wall color with oak-finished wainscot on the walls. It is accessible from both the living room and kitchen.

KITCHEN is 12 x 11 and continues with the pistachio colored walls and quality oak finished cabinets. White countertops and backsplashes provide a sparkling contrast. Open to the dining area, it is only separated by a strategically placed breakfast bar. This bar runs perpendicular to the contemporary black smooth-top cooking surface, providing lots of space for preparing and staging foods close to the stove. It can be a buffet bar when prepared food is placed in bowls for serving. For those prospective buyers raised in the 70s, you will recognize the style of cabinets and hardware. If not your desired look, since the cabinets are in good shape, you can paint a bright, trendy color, or just the doors & drawer faces can be replaced for a more contemporary style, with minimal cost. And above the cooking surface is sufficient space to remove the vent hood and install a micro-hood (combination microwave and vent). Along with the smooth cooking surface, the kitchen comes equipped with disposal, dishwasher, built-in double oven and a refrigerator with water/ice in the door. So, no need to wait, call the family; its time for a feast!

UTILITY ROOM with PANTRY is 17 x 6 and conveniently located in a separate room off the kitchen with ample space for your washer, dryer AND a large upright freezer. It also features great storage with built-in cabinets above the washer/dryer, another upper set of cabinets flanking a window on an adjacent wall, and matching cabinets with drawers beneath, with a long countertop that is great space for laundry folding. The leg space beneath the window makes it a great desk area beneath natural and fluorescent lighting. You can have handy access to a computer loaded with all your recipes! There is a separate water heater here, dedicated to the kitchen & laundry. The second water heater is devoted to the bathrooms. NO COLD SHOWERS during laundry or food prep!

MASTER BEDROOM is 19 x 12 and can accommodate even a King-sized bed nestled between a pair of slender windows with room beneath for end tables. Add your chest of drawers / dresser and you can rejuvenate here. From this master, you can exit to a 42x11 solarium/sunroom along the back of the home.

MASTER BATH has tile floors, white wall tiles, a marble-like spacious one-piece counter top with molded double sinks that make cleaning a breeze! These are beneath an oversized wall mirror that could be surrounded with an eye-popping frame for added visual interest and contrast. You have a built in wood medicine chest, and cabinets and drawers below with plenty of hidden lighting to prepare after your shower or bath (this room has both!). Since there is a leak in the shower, now is a perfect time to customize this room to modernize it with tumbled marble shower, a spa-tub, contemporary cabinet doors & drawer fronts; however much or little your heart desires!

NICE-SIZED 2nd & 3rd BEDROOMS 14 x 16 and 12 x 14 are also more spacious than new homes offer so your kids are not confined to only a twin bed & small desk in each room.

2nd BATHROOM features a full tub and an abundance of storage for linens & towels. Like the master bath, it also boasts a long granite-like counter top with molded double sinks and no grout lines. A wood molding that has been installed around this wall mirror above the sink compliments the surrounding cabinets and the warm beaded board above the wall tile and on the counter side of the linen cabinet emphasizes the rural charm of this home. Notice the up-to-date ceramic floor tiles.

SOLARIUM/SUNROOM is 42X11 and accessible from the master bedroom as well as the right corner of the living room and from the back yard. The red tiled floor contrasts nicely with the homes white brick, and a great view thanks to an abundance of windows along the entire length, as well as on the 11 ft. side. Bring out coffee or hot chocolate to watch pets & kids play safely in the fenced yard or enjoy songbirds announcing spring. Add your workout equipment theres room- and exercise even in inclimate weather. NO more fitness obstacles!
