Craftsman style detailing and decorative stone trim add instant appeal to the exterior of this updated two-level design. Inside, a practical floor plan makes this a good home for the young, growing family. From the sheltered porch entry, a single front door opens to a well-lit foyer with a den, or home office, to one side.

The den has a full-size window and double glass-paned doors for added light. The laundry room is also located on the home’s lower floor, across the hall from the staircase leading to the main living areas. The entire back half of the ground floor is unfinished.

This space has roughed in plumbing for a three-piece bathroom and access through sliding glass doors to a covered back yard patio. Upstairs, a contemporary kitchen features a raised eating bar, corner sinks and a door that opens to a partly covered sundeck. The adjoining great room has a dining area with glass doors that open to a covered deck over the garage and a feature wall with a gas fireplace.

Space on either side of the fireplace could be used for bookshelves or an entertainment unit. A large window in the great room has an extra-wide sill, prefect for growing plants. The master bedroom is at the back of the house and has a walk-in closet and a three- piece ensuite bathroom.

Two additional bedrooms share the home’s second bathroom, which has a boxed out wall for the bathtub. A double garage is recessed into the main level of the home and has a side door that leads directly into the foyer. This plan has 1,345 square feet of finished living space and measures 38 feet wide by 49 feet, 4 inches deep.
