This attractive two-bedroom home, designed for a lot that slopes to the rear, includes plans for an unfinished basement that could provide a mortgage-helper, an in-law suite or simply extra bedrooms for a growing family. The covered entry is set off by two stone pilasters and leads into a foyer with a lofty 11-foot ceiling. To the immediate left is the den or second bedroom, with a built-in book shelf. A coat closet is to the right, opposite the U-shaped stairway that leads to the basement area. A three-piece bathroom is nearby. Directly ahead is the great room, also with an 11-foot ceiling. Sliding glass doors offer access to a spacious covered deck, perfect for alfresco meals. The gas fireplace, flanked by windows, will cast its glow into the open-plan dining area and kitchen. Nine-foot ceilings in the kitchen and dining area mark them off from the great room. The generous work island that separates the kitchen from the great room features a double sink and space for the dishwasher, as well as plenty of counter space. The dining room’s large window looks out to the back garden. The roomy master suite, at the back of the home for privacy, includes a large walk-in closet as well as a generous en-suite located in a bayed-out area. An oval soaker tub adds a touch of class, and the WC occupies a separate room near the glassed-in shower stall. The laundry room features access from the double garage, which is large enough to include a workshop. A pantry is located off the laundry room. Exterior finishes include narrow horizontal wood siding and stucco, as well as stone accents. This home measures 47 feet wide and 62 feet, 10 inches deep, for a total of 1,693 square feet, not including the unfinished basement.
