Lease Purchas Option. Beautifully appointed home on quiet cul-de-sac, close to major commute routes. Backing to woods, the back yard is a haven for everyone, watch the fireflies flicker in the trees, relax on the hammock, BBQ on the oversized patio & dine in the screened gazebo while watching small souls scamper on the play equipment. The open floor plans allows you to prepare tasty delights in the upgraded kitchen with Maple cabinets and top of the line appliances while keeping loved ones close in the open family room. The beautiful wood floors flow from the formal dining room to what is currently a music room (you could use it as Living room or office). There’s a lovely Oversized Owner suite. Finished basement with outside entrance offers a room designed as a magical place for the current owner's little ones: Mini play kitchen, reading book nook, stage w/ spot light, shelves for their art/creations and a partial tiled floor for craft projects to be worry free. Adults were not forgotten, there's a great sports bar/cave, with bar, and media wiring including surround sound wiring. Add the half bath with ceramic tile floors set on the diagonal, and you may never want to leave the basement! Whimsical decorating for the owner’s kids includes a Jungle Motif bath that is tons of fun, and Bedrooms designed to please. While some of the dιcor may be specific to the owners, under the right circumstances they would be willing to neutralize if you ask at the time of contract. The owner’s asked me to let you know, the wallpaper is Waverly. Also, if you are not a Steelers fan…You can change the theme of the sports cave, once it is yours. The garage has a workbench and lots of shelves and cabinets. A delightful effect is “parking spaces” for the bikes. Lots of shelves, and storage in the basement play room, a great way to help little ones learn how to be organized. This home has it all. Plus energy efficient with highest utility bills being $259/mo….You’ve just got to love that!
