With direct entry off a tree lined street, this townhome greets you with a spacious foyer leading to first floor bonus room with flexibility for use as an office, den, or family room. A new Pella sliding glass door with integral blinds opens to a private, fully fenced outdoor patio great for grilling or enjoying the warmer months as well as a private 2 car garage. The second floor opens up to a sun filled living room complete with large windows and a cozy fireplace with an elegantly designed mantle, hearth, and custom bookcase with media cabinet. The open floor plan leads to an adjoining dining room complete with built in banquette seating with storage drawers (and custom cushions coming soon) perfect for entertaining. Anchoring the second floor is a new luxury kitchen complete with custom maple cabinetry including 42 inch upper cabinets, an expansive peninsula with seating, ample counter space, a mosaic backsplash, statement kitchen hood with vent fan, under cabinet lighting, Kraus composite granite workstation sink, and Frigidaire Professional appliances including an induction range, French door refrigerator, built in microwave, as well as a Bosch dishwasher.
