Welcome to this stately home that was custom built and lovingly maintained by the same family. Located in historic Deerpath Hill Estates, it sits on a quiet cul-de-sac and is surrounded by lush woods and mature trees. From the moment you step through the front door into the foyer, it will capture your heart and impress with its warm and inviting interiors. The large family room boasts hand-crafted wood paneling, a gas fireplace, and a dutch door leading to a screened in porch. The inviting dining room features original corner built-ins, and sits across the hall from the gracious living room. The heart of the home is its sunny, fully renovated eat-in kitchen with island and family sized table. This newer kitchen has all custom built amish-inset cabinets, cambria quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, a large sink looking out over the beautiful back yard, a dutch side door, and new slider doors to the private back patio with gas grill. The thoughtfully designed floor plan also boasts a first-floor primary bedroom with en-suite bath and a large double closet. Second floor has 3 additional bedrooms and a spacious entertaining great room with built-in bookcases. Hardwood floors through most of home. There is a 3 car garage with ample storage space above.
