1906 Hillside Lane

There are homes you tour and forget. This isn't one of them. From the moment you walk into the kitchen, the quality of this place sets itself apart. The shaker cabinets go floor to ceiling, the center island is substantial with a rich stained-wood base and granite top, and the cooking setup - double wall ovens, gas cooktop, stainless range hood, stainless French door refrigerator - is the kind of kitchen that makes you actually want to cook. Two pendant lights hang over the island. It's well thought-out, well executed, and it looks expensive because it was done right. The great room opens off the kitchen and it's genuinely large - nearly 20 by 24 feet - with hardwood floors and windows on multiple sides. The whole main level feels open without feeling empty. Three bedrooms are on the main floor, including a primary suite that runs over 15 by 20 feet. That's a real retreat, not a room you squeeze a king bed into. Then there's the backyard. The in-ground pool sits inside a fully fenced .42-acre lot with a concrete patio between the house and pool, plenty of grass, and mature trees along the perimeter. Summer here looks exactly the way summer is supposed to look. You're not on top of your neighbors. The finished basement adds a large rec room and real storage - the kind of lower level you actually use. A three-car attached garage handles the rest. William Ryan built this home in 2006 with specs that still hold up: 9-foot ceilings, conduit wiring, R42 ceiling insulation, upgraded furnace, brick-faced front. No HOA. Homes with this combination of interior quality, outdoor space, and lot size don't sit long. Come see it in person - the photos don't fully capture it. Dream about this home today!
