01About this home

Welcome to this charming and truly one-of-a-kind Pretty Blue Gingerbread home in the highly desirable Country Towne Subdivision! While it may look like an adorable cottage from the outside, this spacious beauty offers over 4,000 square feet of living space with 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths. Designed for both comfort and entertaining, the home features a HUGE formal dining room complete with a stunning rosewood dining set that stays, a double living room, and the coolest rustic-inspired family room showcasing a dramatic floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace with built-in cubbies for wood or decor, plus authentic Pennsylvania rustic wood beams and mantle. A full brick driveway adds timeless curb appeal and leads to the oversized, extra-deep garage with plenty of room for vehicles, storage, and hobbies. Recent updates include a newer roof, exterior paint, and kitchen paint (2021), new carpet and paint in Bedroom 2, plus a stove and convection microwave that are only 3 years old. The oversized laundry room includes a washer and dryer just 4 years old. Step outside into your own private Secret Garden! The backyard is a dream retreat with wraparound decking, a gazebo, a starlit seating pergola, and a charming block firepit centered in the heart-shaped brick patio. A gleaming white pergola off the living room creates even more space for entertaining-or peaceful moments of solitude. The finished basement offers a cozy Northwoods cabin vibe with knotty pine throughout. Enjoy a kitchenette and dining area (currently used as an exercise space), a spacious rec room with wood-burning stove, plus an area perfect as a guest or sleeping space adjacent to the full basement bath. And the storage? Incredible! Huge closets and three separate storage areas in the basement mean room for everything. This is not just a home-it's an experience full of warmth, charm, and unforgettable character.
