The family room has gleaming hardwood floors, walls of windows, and cozy fireplace. By 'cozy, I don't mean small...this room is very large for a family room.

French doors lead to a tiled patio with arbor, and a lovely backyard which has a privacy fence. And, the entire yard has underground irrigation so you can always have a green yard with no lugging of hose.

Also, on the main level, not before mentioned, is a half bath off the garage, a coat closet for guests, and a larger closet for the family. See, the builder thought of everything!

Upstairs, of course, we have a master suite with sitting area, whirlpool tub, glass shower, huge walk-in closet, his/her vanities with his at a higher level for standing.

The siding is hardiplank and there is a brick front. The lot is large and private.

This home has had many happy memories, but is now too large with the 3500 square feet for only 2 people as the kids are now headed for college. It is ready for a new family and the creation of more happy memories.
