There is a lot to love about 698 W. Church Road! As you walk to the front door, there is a large stamped concrete front porch with wonderful views of the valley! The front door makes a statement and allows a lot of light into the home! The living room features a bay window to highlight the view and a propane fireplace, which flows seamlessly into the kitchen and dining area, which continues into the sunroom and out to the back patio. The custom kitchen features a large kitchen island, along with stainless steel appliances, updated countertops, tile backsplash, and custom crown molding, making it a great space to entertain. The sunroom's large windows and skylights allow lots of natural light, and that, along with the exposed brick, makes it a space you don't want to leave! Heading upstairs, you have a second-floor laundry and the primary bedroom with an attached bathroom complete with tile floors and a tile shower. There are 3 additional bedrooms, along with another full bathroom with a custom vanity and tile. The walk-in attic is also easily accessible from this level, which gives you ample space for storage! The finished lower level includes a second living space with a wood-burning fireplace with a Kodiak stove insert, making it a cozy spot in the winter months! The two-car garage is accessed from this level and features a second kitchen with durable flooring; it is very functional and can be used as additional space to host. There is space off of the garage, which can be used for a workshop, a place for the lawn tools, or additional storage. If you love the outdoors, this is the home for you! There is extensive landscaping, a large paver patio with a pergola, hot tub, and additional yard space beyond the retaining wall which makes it easy to entertain or simply relax, unwind, and enjoy the outdoors! The home is centrally located along a quiet country road just minutes from 322 / 501 and other major roadways, as well as the Middle Creek Wildlife Management Area, making it convenient to get anywhere you need to go! This home has been loved on for 30+ years and is ready for its new owners! Too many upgrades to mention; please see the upgrades attachment for a detailed list! Don't delay; schedule your private showing before it is too late! ***An offer deadline is set for the end of the day 8/30***
