One-floor living at its finest on a park-like cul-de-sac in Downing Forge, the very welcoming and desirable 55+ community of 112 single family homes. This pristine 2-bedroom, 2-bath home has an attached 2-car garage and full basement and is one of the finest lots in the development. The covered front porch and rear yard paver patio are ideal for entertaining and relaxing outdoors. The open floor plan allows for large-scale entertaining while retaining a sense of warmth and intimacy. The decor throughout has been thoughtfully planned for maximum comfort and function. Gleaming hardwood floors begin in the Foyer and continue into the Living Room, Dining Room, Kitchen and Breakfast Area. Off the Foyer is the double-door entrance to the Den/Study. There is an open, carpeted staircase leading to the Full Basement. You will be amazed at the amount of space for storage, hobbies, exercise equipment, a workshop, or whatever your needs may be. Beyond the Foyer is the formal Living Room with a gas fireplace and lovely surround. This room can even accommodate a Grand Piano! The spacious Kitchen features an abundance of cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, deep sink, granite countertops, stone backsplash, recessed lighting over the raised bar, and a double-door Pantry. There is a separate Breakfast Area with a large window overlooking the gardens and a custom window seat that opens for additional storage. The Laundry Room includes wall cabinets and a utility sink. There is wiring for an electric dryer and a gas line as well if that is your choice. From here you can access the neatly organized and newly painted Garage. Continuing from the Kitchen is the formal, light-filled Dining Room, the perfect setting for larger gatherings as well as making small celebrations special and memorable. The large, airy Family Room features two skylights, a ceiling fan, and sliders to the Paver Patio. The Patio must be seen to be fully appreciated. The owners have created a private oasis here with specimen trees, shrubs, perennials and annuals. There is a retractable awning for times when more shade is desired. The Master Bedroom has a double-door entry, walk-in closet, and large Master Bath with a double-sink vanity and an additional 6-foot dressing table with tons of storage below. There is a spacious shower with a tile bench (so convenient!). The charming Guest Bedroom has a double closet and is adjacent to the Hall Bath with tub/shower combination. All custom window treatments are included in this truly move-in ready home! The HOA covers all lawn maintenance, snow removal (even your driveway and sidewalk to the front door), gutter cleaning and periodic painting of the front door. Community amenities include a Clubhouse with full Kitchen (which can be rented for parties), an Exercise Room, two large-screen TVs, a Meeting Area and small Library. There is an outdoor Heated Pool, Hot Tub, Shuffleboard, Tennis/Pickleball and Bocce Courts.
