All the convenience and comfort you've envisioned for stylish, low-maintenance living in a ranch home is found here! Situated on a private cul-de-sac in the 55+ community of Downing Forge, this 2 bedroom, 2 bath home has been impeccably maintained and upgraded - newer carpets and padding, front door with sidelights, neutral wall colors, slate appliances, and landscaping. Brand new features include the kitchen flooring and richly toned kitchen cabinets with attractive hardware, the new lighting installed throughout the home, the addition of cabinets to laundry, garage, and basement, and the front storm door. The tasteful exterior features stone and stucco, and once inside you will appreciate its thoughtfully laid out floor plan, made to feel all the more spacious by its 9' ceilings and abundant natural light. The great room has a gas log fireplace with striking marble surround and mantle and adjoins a formal dining room. The eat-in kitchen is as beautiful as it is functional - an arched window above the sink, with a separate vegetable sink, a chef-pleasing gas range, upgraded countertops, and plentiful surface area for meal preparation. The casual dining area with large glass sliding doors overlooks the back deck and mature evergreen trees providing both privacy and natural beauty. Unloading groceries is a breeze as you have direct access by way of laundry room to the kitchen from the garage. The primary bedroom is spacious, easily accommodating a king bed and all your furnishings. The bath features two sinks and a step-in shower with bench seating for a sauna-esq experience. The additional bedroom makes a perfect home office, hobby room, or guest quarters and has its own full bathroom. A full unfinished daylight basement means no storage woes and plenty of room to spare, to set up home work-out equipment or a hobby/workbench. The pleasures of home don't end at the borders of the property; this amenity-filled community offers a fabulous outdoor swimming pool and hot tub, a large clubhouse with a full kitchen, tennis/pickleball courts, and Bocce court. You'll enjoy long walks around this quiet neighborhood and meeting and greeting new friends along the way. Leave the lawn maintenance and snow removal to the HOA, you have better things to do! Spring is just around the corner and so is the opportunity to start living the carefree lifestyle you deserve...come and put the wheels in motion today!
