Get ready to soar to new heights in this elegant and impeccably maintained home in popular Country Club Heights.
The bright and sophisticated exterior of this traditional-style 3-bedroom/2.5-bathroom home beckons you inside, where you will find gleaming floors framed by a 2-story, classically wainscoted foyer and graceful arched doorways. Upon entering, you will find a room that is well-suited to be an office, home library, or formal living room on your right. On your left, sits a beautiful formal dining room that is flooded with natural light and is ideal for entertaining anyone from coworkers to clients to friends.
The kitchen—with stainless steel appliances, ample counter and cabinet space, tile backsplash, breakfast nook, and bar—is as perfect for a home chef as it is for people on the go. The kitchen is open to the open, airy living room and to a breakfast nook, allowing the cook to stay connected to the action, whether it’s game day, Saturday morning pancakes, or simply a quiet night in snuggled near the cozy, gas log fireplace. The breakfast nook opens, through French doors, to a large deck and partially-fenced backyard which backs up to wooded land and is fitting for big summer cookouts, as well as more intimate gatherings with friends on warm evenings.
The soaring ceilings of the living room open to the upstairs hallway which connects the three bedrooms. Moving from the two, generously sized, secondary bedrooms and the secondary bathroom, the hallway unfurls into the incredibly spacious and luxurious primary bedroom suite. Encompassing more than 300 square feet, the enormous primary bedroom is perfect for a king bedroom suite and includes a space that can serve as a sitting room or reading nook, a workout room, or as additional space for storing clothes in dressers. The large en suite boasts dual vanities, a separate water closet, a large walk-in shower, a soaking tub, and access to the expansive walk-in closet—all of which makes it a space that can accommodate busy morning routines, as well as serve as your personal oasis where you can unwind after a long day.
