Description

Nestled in a sought-after neighborhood, this home lives like a ranch and offers a rare opportunity to own a property of this caliber- homes like this seldom come to market. Set on just shy of an acre in town, the residence is surrounded by mature trees and lush landscaping, creating a private, park-like setting just minutes from Dowling and Valley High School. Rich in character and timeless appeal, the all-brick home, with main level primary suite, showcases hardwood floors throughout, exquisite built-ins, and two fireplaces with gas starters. A stunning solarium invites natural light year-round, while the walk-out lower level offers additional living and entertaining possibilities. The home also features a laundry chute, abundant storage, and an impressive tuck-under four-car garage. Outdoors, the grounds are equally captivating, highlighted by a serene koi pond, large patio gathering space, and a unique drive-through storage shed with covered potting area; perfect for gardeners and hobbyists alike. This distinguished property presents an exceptional opportunity to customize and elevate a truly special home to your own vision, blending classic architecture with modern luxury. A private retreat in one of the city's most coveted locations, complete with a mainfloor primary suite featuring a sauna-this is a rare offering not to be missed.
