The wide front porch welcomes you and your guests and provides a great view of mature trees and Berwyn Neighborhood Park across the street. On the main floor you'll find hardwood floors and a huge family room addition with cozy wood burning fireplace that was added in 2021. Two sets of French doors lead to the decks on the back that overlook the lush landscape of the deep double lot. One deck was built with capability to hold a hot tub and both are constructed of low-maintenance composite decking. Above the family room addition is a stunning roof terrace to further enjoy the outdoors. The primary and one of the guest bedrooms have walk-out access. If you want to expand the home further, the addition was designed to accommodate a second floor.
