The 2,499-square-foot Julia, with a handsome brick and wood exterior, has a unique floor design that will captivate the discerning buyer. All the available space has been used to maximize the livability of the Julia. A covered porch runs all the way to the back and divides the house from the detached two-car garage.
Entry from the covered porch leads into the vaulted family room. As the main gathering space in the Julia, this large room is warmed by a corner wood stove. The wood box is beneath the stairway leading to a 387-square-foot attic. Sliding glass doors open onto a side deck. Here is a great spot to enjoy the sun or spend an afternoon with a good book.
Projecting from the front of the house is the guest bedroom. It is semi-private and equipped with a corner walk-in closet and a single sink along one wall. A full bathroom with two sinks and a tub is just outside the door. Adjacent to the guest suite is the second bedroom. This room also has a walk-in closet and a single sink. Three large windows bathe the room with extra light.
The master suite is isolated for privacy and loaded with amenities. They include a large sleeping area, huge walk-in closet with built-in shelves on the outside wall, private patio through sliding doors off the main suite and sumptuous bathroom. An oversized corner shower, compartmentalized toilet, linen storage and a raised corner spa comprise the amenities in this bath. The room is also brightened by large windows over the spa and a block window in the shower.
Next to the master suite is a 100-square-foot home office. There is enough room here for a personal computer, chairs and filing cabinets. The area, convenient to the master suite, could be used as a den if needed.
The walk-through kitchen, directly across from the vaulted dining room, has a breakfast nook, island cooktop, pantry and double ovens. The nook opens onto a covered back deck that is long enough to host the whole gang at a summer barbecue. Adjacent to the kitchen is the utility room featuring dual sinks, large counter area, overhead cupboards and the washer-dryer. Across the hall next to the pantry is a large freezer.
Attached to the covered porch/deck is the two-car garage. There is a long workbench/shop area and a large area for storage. Inside this area is a set of stairs up to the second attic with 312 square feet. With this large garage, an additional door could be added for another car if needed.
