On a quiet cul-de-sac street in close proximity to restaurants, shops and Tuckahoe Elementary School, this handsome Colonial offers casual elegance with all the comforts of home. The full country porch is the perfect perch for visiting and leads into a home filled with warmth. The first floor has flexible spaces for gathering--a central kitchen with breakfast nook, gracious family room with beams and gas fireplace, elegant living room (presently used for dining), a lovely dining/music room, an airy sunroom addition and a perfectly tucked away powder room. The second floor has 4 bedrooms including the primary with walk-in closet and en suite bath, a freshened hall bath and great storage in the walk-up attic. Handsome mouldings and trim throughout, large windows, updated light fixtures, and hardwood floors enhance the solid feel of this home. Some updates include appliances and the custom Virginia soapstone in the kitchen, running in the gas line to install the gas stove and gas FP, instant hot water, enclosing the back rear porch, paving the driveway, putting in the brick patio and landscaping. The English basement opens to a brick gallery running under the front porch (perfect for bikes!) and includes 916 sq. ft. of living space--a spacious den with cozy gas stove, an office, a mud room with closet and powder room, a large laundry room that opens to the garage and an inviting garden room that opens to the back yard. To be so close to conveniences, the back yard feels a world away. Beautiful woodlands run behind the property, they are filled with birds and mature trees--watching the seasons change from the sunroom has been a joy to the owners. Being fully fenced, the back yard with its lovely brick patio, Crape Myrtles and Camellias, is a favorite gathering spot for friends, family and beloved pets. The Westham Woods neighborhood holds an annual Christmas party and outdoor Halloween gathering. New sidewalks and proper crosswalks are an extra benefit for safe access to school and shops. Welcome home.
