A perfect location on over an acre! Available only due to transfer, this sought after Stover Builder's home in one of the most desirable neighborhoods and areas of Middletown. THe owner has made many recent and important updates to make it as good, if not better than new: roof (under warranty), heat, air conditioning, hot water, septic (recently inspected and County permitted), and new Trek Deck updated kitchen marble counters and flooring, just to name a few items. The main level and walls in the upper level were recently painted. A new owner can move in with knowledge that the home has been meticulously maintained and upgraded The interiors of the home feature an open, sunny floor plan with expansive rooms. There is not a room without a lovely view of property and landscaping. Whether you are working in the private office on the main level, or entertaining small or large parties, or just having a quiet day home sitting inside by the cozy stone (with new gas insert) fireplace, or out on the covered front porch or on the beatufiul back deck, or in the backyard at the fire pit, or puttering in the work room in the basement or large shed in the back-- there is lots to enjoy in this beautiful home. The private front room office has double windows and french door. From the center hall entry with lofty ceiling, enter the large sunny living room and adjoining dining room that accomodates a table for 4 to 10. The kitchen features solid oak wood cabinetry, marble counters, loads of cabinet and counter space and a pantry with full view of the huge breakfast area and family room, and access through patio doors to the new, large Trek deck.
