Custom built in 1989 English Tudor (with real stone tower!) on 1/2+ landscaped acres. House is located on a quiet street, yet convenient to shopping, schools, etc. The 2298 square feet does not include a 25'x11' sunroom nor the 21'x13' walk in storage on the 2nd floor. The 122' x 208' property includes a 15'x30' above ground pool, situated in ample decking. A garden shed serves a dual purpose of assisting in solar heating the pool. The raised bed garden is flanked by peach, pear and apple trees with an adjacent asparagus bed. The raised beds include raspberry and strawberry plants and ample beds for other flowers and vegetables. There is still plenty of lawn area for recreation. The attached 2.5 car garage is "side loaded" and allows for on and off street parking.
The home is well insulated with 6" exterior walls. The attic is well insulated as well and contains a power vent. A new roof was installed in 2008. 1" blue board insulates the exterior of the 6" walls as well as the foundation of the1080 square foot basement. A high efficiency Rheem gas furnace and Bryant air conditioner keep everything comfortable. The Space Gard air cleaner, Kenmore central vacuum system and 50 gallon gas water heater help keep everything clean.
