Public Remarks: This very spacious home is located in an elegant, smaller subdivision. It is a very appealing community with no HOA or fees. It has a park-like design of wide curved streets. All of the homes are upscale, generally large, and beautiful custom homes of interesting architecture. Each one sits a good distance apart from its neighbor, and all are on spacious lots. This home on .83 acres is set back from the road. It has a nice front yard and a very deep back yard with a gorgeous view to the hills. A large, covered front porch is at grade level, just two steps up. You'll enter into a large, open, family-room style living room. This home is all about having lots of space, with more usable rooms than you can imagine. It offers a casual lifestyle and an easy floor plan. A bank of framed window openings with no glass opens the wall from the kitchen to the living room. This makes a way for easy interaction between these two rooms and attractively separates them at the same time. The kitchen is immense with long lines of upper and lower cabinets. Its open floor space holds a full dining room sized table, room for a buffet or China cabinet, and plenty of room for walking all around everything without feeling cramped. This whole arrangement is uniquely different and very comfortable for family and guests. A door from the garage opens directly to the kitchen. It is convenient to bring the groceries & other gear straight into the house. The washer, dryer, & pantry are closeted behind double bi-fold doors on the opposite side from the garage. The kitchen opens out back to a sizeable deck that delightfully turns out to be at 2nd story level above the back yard. Oh!, it's a real treat at sunrise! The master bedroom with its own full bathroom, two additional bedrooms, and a 2nd full bathroom are all down the hall on this main floor. The floor plan makes a very good use of 1400 sq.ft. on each of two levels. A full staircase leading down from the living room delivers you to a big single room with no divisions that's the size of the upstairs living/dining/kitchen area. It has a convenience-kitchen with full upper/lower cabinets a sink, and a refrigerator all along the back wall. Intentionally there is no stove, but there are plenty of counter tops for microwave, air fryer, and other such appliances. Two large bedroom-sized rooms and storage closets for any use you might have in mind, and a 3rd full bathroom are all down the hall. A large utility/storage room in the far-side front corner might also bring comfort in some rare instance, if you feel a need to shelter there. A multitude of uses are made possible in this fully finished basement--a play room, a family room for the kids, a game/media/music/or hobby room, maybe for guest stay-overs, or for an office at home, and so on. Double French doors to a covered porch, give way to a great back yard with plenty of room for a pool or other fun uses. Driving in you may have noticed the shopping center with an Ingles grocery store, Ace Hardware, Wal Mart, and many other useful businesses. It's only about 3 minutes away. Everything else you might want or need-churches, banks, gyms, pharmacies, clothing stores, medical services, the hospital, and so much more are all within 5-10 minutes reach. There's even public pool within walking distance! The home appears to have been well maintained, but for the sake of convenience, an as-is sale is intended. Also, there is some very good quality furniture the owner may want to leave behind. Come take a look to see for yourself. This one could be the perfect, easy move-right-in opportunity you'll ever find! You might even get settled into your new home before the winter snows begin by Thanksgiving or Christmas! The property is located in Howard Acres Subdivision but fronts on El Sara Drive inside of the beautiful community of WesMar.
