First time offered in 30 years. The owners of this home were both PHD Cultural Anthropologists with a love of Japanese and Asian cultures which are represented by the use of bamboo in the home. A major 2008 remodel architecturally transformed this one story, creating an aesthetically pleasing ambiance for diverse livability. Located on a quiet cul-de-sac in the Arbours, the home consists of 3 bedrooms, an office with a multi-purpose area at one end, 2.5 bathrooms, 2 car attached garage, Four Season Room, wood or tile flooring and a low maintenance yard and exterior with convenient access to paths leading throughout the subdivision. A gently sloped walkway allows step-free entry into a spacious front vestibule functioning as an energy saver by keeping heat or cool air in. Natural light is a theme found throughout the house provided by an abundance of energy-saving Pella windows or strategically placed solar tube skylights (some wired/switch operated for dual usage). The home features beautiful custom wood doors (pocket and swing) and built-ins throughout. Prior to 2008, an addition with cathedral ceilings enlarged the kitchen and office area. The kitchen features multiple work areas with Corian counters, a bounty of Amish custom cabinetry, a fold-out pantry and adjacent table space with views of surrounding nature. A spacious office is complete with built-in cabinetry, multiple work spaces and an open area at one end for flexible use. The dining room and adjacent hearth (gas logs) are separated from the Sunroom by French pocket doors, providing tranquility while enjoying the peaceful view. Notice the sunroom ceiling is bamboo, a central part of Japanese culture. A Trex deck can be accessed from the sunroom for outdoor enjoyment. There is a handy mudroom/drop zone is available when entering from the garage with space for seasonal wear. A full bath with walk-in shower is conveniently located nearby. Wide hallways lead from the main living area to the half bath and bedrooms. The Primary Suite was designed for convenience and maximum access to essential built-ins while cathedral ceilings and beautiful windows provide a sense of spaciousness, maximum light and a lovely view. The connected bathroom provides a large walk in shower/wide door with high-end plumbing fixtures, jetted corner tub, Toto toilet and heated towel warmer rack. The remaining 2 bedroom are good size, one reflecting its previous use as a second office and the other with useful built-ins, both have double closets.
