This Sherwood Forest-adjacent home on an oh-so-pretty street is a true gem , boasting vintage charm on the outside with loads of updates on the inside — plus a magical backyard that will melt your heart. The spacious (nearly 2500 sq ft) 3 bd/3ba house sits on an expansive (almost 17,000 ft) lot and was thoroughly transformed by the current owners in 2012. It sports a host of upgrades from 2012, including electrical, copper plumbing; pristine 3/4" oak wood floors throughout; recessed lighting; alarm system; multiple French doors accessing the exquisite backyard…and 2 wood-burning fireplaces, plus gated parking galore — 2-car attached garage AND additional detached 3 car garage (currently used for 2 cars, with the 3rd space used for storage), AND parking for an RV – and several additional cars! Direct entry from the attached garage takes you into the bright/airy open kitchen, featuring custom cabinets and top-end appliances, including a Wolf 6 burner range/oven, Viking microwave, Fisher-Paykel dishwasher, and GE Cafe Series 4-door refrigerator. In addition, you’ll find a perfectly proportioned open pantry to fulfill all your storage dreams, a well-positioned laundry room with still more storage, and a discreet, elegant powder room. The kitchen opens to a huge great room ideal for hosting large gatherings, hanging out to watch your favorite shows and movies, or cozying up to a fire. And when you’re craving a more intimate vibe, get comfy in the separate living room where you’re treated to a second beautiful fireplace and French doors to the patio. The front bedroom currently doubles as an office and workout area, the guest bedroom is a sweet retreat ideal for kids or visitors, and the guest bath is a stunner — full marble tile shower with glass enclosure, custom vanity with quartz countertop and Travertine floor. Separated from the other bedrooms down its own hallway is the lushly romantic primary bedroom with tons of closet space, two separate doors to that fabulous backyard, and a dreamy en suite bath with custom vanity w/quartz countertop and dual sinks, Travertine tile shower, and a cast iron clawfoot tub. Outside is the piece de resistance — a true oasis, this private backyard sanctuary provides enchanting patio space & pergola for al fresco dining, glorious rose garden, vegetable garden, and sparkling saltwater pool with spa. This is the home you’ve been looking for in a wonderful neighborhood you’ll love, just waiting for your personal touches to make it your own.
