Park views, extra space, and flexible living options set this home apart. With 5 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, it's the ONLY LOT OF ITS KIND-backing directly to a 10-acre new playground, zip line, paved walking paths, skate park, baseball and basketball areas. Home is also bordered by a wide open COMMON AREA that will never be built on. It's rare to get this much space without paying extra in TAXES. Inside - QUALITY throughout - SOLID core doors, custom shades, a two-story foyer leads into the main level with WIDE PLANK, HAND-SCRAPED HARDWOOD floors. The updated kitchen features Corian countertops, stainless steel appliances, and an ENORMOUS custom island topped with 100-year-old reclaimed BARNWOOD-a true centerpiece for cooking, gathering, and everyday living. The large eating area overlooks the backyard, and a butler's pantry with sink connects to the formal dining room with built-in cabinetry-ideal for hosting or holiday meals. The main level also includes a family room with 9-FOOT CEILINGS, a formal living room, and an UPDATED HALF BATH. The living and dining rooms could be enclosed to create a MAIN-LEVEL SUITE-great for in-laws, guests, or multi-generational living.
