Property Description
Welcome to this sprawling brick ranch nestled within Fairmount, where beautifully maintained grounds and a peaceful setting create an exceptional place to call home. Meticulously cared for by its owners, this home offers generous living spaces, timeless brick construction, and an abundance of natural light throughout. The main level is designed with entertaining in mind, featuring an extra-large formal living room with a wood-burning fireplace, a spacious family room surrounded by windows overlooking the manicured backyard, and a dining area that provides plenty of room for gatherings. The main floor offers two bedrooms plus a third bedroom currently being used as an office, complete with built-in cabinetry and parquet flooring. Downstairs, the fully finished walkout basement expands the living space considerably. A second family room with another wood-burning fireplace provides a comfortable gathering space, while an additional oversized sunroom-style room is filled with windows and offers beautiful views of the grounds. The lower level also includes a laundry room and kitchenette with additional appliances, creating excellent flexibility for guests, extended family, a hobby space, or a potential mother-in-law suite. Outside, the property truly shines. The grounds have been exceptionally maintained, with an expansive lawn that reflects the tremendous care that has gone into the landscaping and outdoor maintenance. With its open, lush setting, the yard is a gardener’s dream. An additional storage shed provides convenient space for tools and equipment, supporting any gardening or outdoor hobby needs. Gutter helmets have also been installed on the gutters, adding ease of maintenance and long-term protection. A concrete driveway leads to the two-car tuck-under garage, while an additional three-car parking pad provides plenty of room for guests and entertaining. Additional features include a roof approximately six years old and furnace and air conditioning approximately eight years old. With its substantial living areas, two fireplaces, finished walkout lower level, exceptional outdoor spaces, and meticulous maintenance, this is a home that offers both comfort and versatility in one of the area’s most desirable settings. Classy and timeless in design, this property is ready to be enjoyed for years to come.
