Very Special House seeks Very Special Buyer...

Must-see, updated home in a fantastic neighborhood, one block from Schmidt Lake. Paths to Schmidt Lake Park and Zachary Lane play-fields. Opened up and updated with style.

The owners get 'straight-A' grades for making outstanding selections and going above and beyond.

It starts with a fantastic exterior featuring an entirely redesigned front entry (re-graded and replanted) with Zen-garden-style front walk, low-maintenance landscaping, brand-new driveway, new cedar-sided vestibule with dramatic ambient lighting, new retaining wall and stone path to back deck, and an outstanding back yard.

Inside, new Quartzite tiled entry takes you to an awesome, and frankly, huge kitchen that features a ton of counter space and light, breakfast bar and informal dining area--and has recently received new recessed lighting, Maytag stainless-steel refrigerator, LG five-burner stainless-steel gas range, Vent-a-hood stainless exhaust fan, Asko stainless-steel dishwasher, re-stained cabinetry and updated hardware. The dining room was opened up to the living room and now features a new built-in hutch with a wine rack, and hardwood balusters. The master bedroom is huge, features a walk-in closet, and master bathroom that includes updated granite vanity and separate shower and jet-tub. On top of that, tons of storage and an oversized two-car garage.
