The 6-car driveway ensures plenty of parking for you and your guests, and doubles as a spacious basketball court. From the driveway, you’ll enter the home to the expanded kitchen. Continuing through the kitchen, you’ll pass the office and dining room, either of which could easily be converted to a fourth bedroom. With two separate living rooms, you’ll note the ample square footage of the first floor layout, and the opportunities it presents. The first living room has a wood burning fireplace with a Franklin Stove inset. Your second living room, adorned with skylights and large windows, allows for abundant natural light and has a wood burning stove. Upstairs you'll find three spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms, both updated with new showers (2021). With a full basement, attic, and a spacious 12x16 shed equipped with ample shelving, storage space is no issue! During the summer months, stay cool with new (2023) ductless mini split air conditioning units throughout the first floor. During the winter, warm your home efficiently with any combination of four zones of gas baseboard heat, heat pump powered mini splits, wood stove, and fireplace!
