This beautiful craftsman home sits on a private, 2 acre lot. Without a doubt, one of your favorite things about this property will be the long driveway leading to the home surrounded by woods. Pull around to your double side entry garage, and take a stone walkway up to the expansive covered front porch, where you'll find plenty of room for patio furniture or a porch swing! As soon as you walk in, you will notice the home's high ceilings, deep crown molding, and light, neutral color scheme. Your formal dining room sits immediately to your left and is open to the living room. This kitchen is truly a chef's delight, featuring gorgeous gray granite, breakfast bar, stainless steel appliances, a fabulous walk-in pantry, breakfast area, and abundant cabinet space. Other custom details of the house plan include built-in office space, a mudroom space at the back door, and a large covered back porch. And not to be forgotten is the primary suite, which showcases a tray ceiling, double vanity sinks with granite, beautiful custom tiled shower, garden tub, and spacious walk-in closet. All of this in River Forest Cove neighborhood, just 10 minutes from the Interstate! Also, the canal runs across the property, and is PERFECT for canoe or kayaking! For boaters, there is boat access at the Alba Club right down the road (with membership requirement). Call today and plan to see this home in person! Buyer to verify all information during due diligence.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
