Dreaming of a southern style home with a two-story porch? Welcome to this enchanting home in Countryside on nearly an acre lot that backs up to the Countryside Nature Preserve for complete rear privacy. Socialize with neighbors and friends on your porch with its haint blue ceiling and leaded glass sidelights. A detached double garage with walk-up storage offers future possibilities for a guest suite, home office or pool house for the pool you can build in the huge flat backyard. The classic colonial floor plan features a two-story foyer with turned staircase to the upper balcony with its French doors to the upper porch. Tall oversized original windows with thick mullions, all hardwood flooring on both levels and the southern exposure in the back offers tremendous potential. You'll love the huge family room with its beautiful wood-burning fireplace. The dining room is square and ideal for a round table. The kitchen features a large bay window that floods the room with light from its southern exposure. The adjacent cozy breakfast room features a corner wood-burning fireplace and French door to the rear deck. The second floor offers a primary suite, three large bedrooms and a hall bath. The walk-out daylight basement has a huge recreation room, wood-burning fireplace and picture window to let the southern sunshine in. A kitchenette with abundant cabinetry and sink plus a new full bath with shower offers your guests private space and private zero entry when they're visiting. New ceramic tile floor in the large laundry room. A large unfinished space of about 400 SF would make an ideal gym. A Hendricks tile roof (2012), Hardie-plank siding, new composite porches, deck and vinyl railings, new full bath in the basement and all new interior paint on ceilings, walls and trim makes moving in a breeze. The kitchen and baths are in original cosmetic condition. Priced well below the assessed value of $976,000, there's lots of equity upside to renovate with your own selections. Bike through connecting neighborhoods to U of R.
