There’s something about a home that makes you want to stay awhile, and this one gives you plenty of reasons to. Set on more than half an acre, this 4-bedroom home offers space to gather, unwind and enjoy every season. Inside, the beautifully updated kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, generous counter space, a center island and stainless appliances. From there, settle into the living room beside the warmth of the wood pellet fireplace, or make your way to the sunroom, where walls of windows create a space that just begs for a cup of coffee in the morning, a good book in the afternoon, or a quiet place to wind down at the end of the day. Downstairs has an entirely different personality. The finished game room feels ready for Friday nights and Sunday football, with a custom bar, projector and a second wood pellet fireplace bringing everyone together. Tucked just beyond is a wine cellar, adding one more unexpected touch to a lower level made for entertaining. An additional lower-level room gives you the freedom to create whatever your life needs next, whether that’s a home office, workout room, hobby space or comfortable guest area. Then summer comes, and the living moves outside. Spend the afternoon around the above-ground pool surrounded by Trex decking, grab some shade beneath the pergola with motorized louvers, and finish the evening with homemade pizza from the built-in brick pizza oven. Beyond it all, the wooded setting gives the backyard a tucked-away feel, while the existing koi pond offers the opportunity to keep it or reimagine the space as a water or planting garden. A large two-car garage, shed, insulated vinyl siding and plenty of parking add the practical pieces, but it’s the spaces throughout this home that make it special. There always seems to be another place to gather, relax or simply enjoy being home.
