Situated on a gorgeous 1 acre lot on a cul-de-sac in Mallard Woods, this 3 bedroom 2.5 bath home built in 1998 boasts location, size, condition, upgrades - it is exceptional in every way! As you approach, take note of the lovely curb appeal with the apron of white fencing bordering the large stone driveway. The exterior is maintenance free gray siding, the double hung thermopane windows are adorned with cranberry shutters and the front porch (27' x 8') promises hours of relaxation as you watch the world go by! CMB General Contractors replaced the roof in 12-2020 (less than 1.5 year ago) with GAF Timberline high definition dimensional shingles in pewter gray, the perfect accent color to this lovely home (receipts and warranty info posted in documents section of listing). Step inside and note the walls throughout are all painted in neutral tones. Boasting 2,140 square feet of living space, there is a large living room to the right overlooking the front yard and a formal dining room behind which overlooks the rear grounds. A doorway from the dining room opens into the gourmet kitchen. The kitchen boasts a full appliance package - electric self cleaning range, microwave, dishwasher and refrigerator (all included). The counters were upgraded by Granite Transformations in 2009 (receipt in doc section of listing). The kitchen is open to the exciting family room which features vaulted ceilings with abundant high hats (just replaced with all LED), a lovely full wall wood-burning fireplace, a gorgeous palladium window above the patio doors overlooking the rear grounds leading to the low maintenance 23' x 14' composite deck. Be sure to take in the incredible rear grounds which are fully fenced and are oh so private! There is a lovely shed that perfectly complements the home's exterior. A hallway leads to a powder room off the family room and a passage door leads to the two bay garage. Take note of the staircase leading to an upper area providing for wonderful storage - what great planning! Now ascend to the second floor level to the primary bedroom - it is HUGE and boasts a large (8' x 6') walk-in closet and primary bath. The primary bath features a walk-in stall shower and attractive vanity. There are two additional bedrooms both painted in neutral tones both boasting two windows in each bedroom. There is a second full bath with tub and vinyl surround on this level. And that's not all! Check out the basement which if needed can be finished for even more living space! This is home to the above ground oil tank, HVAC and the water treatment system (just serviced). The perennial flowers are just now starting to sprout and there will be an abundance of color and blooming from now through the Fall. Be sure to walk the grounds to take in the beauty and privacy - the yard is fully fenced - just imagine entertaining and / or relaxing in this back yard!
