The American Beauty design features a homey country facade and a contemporary interior.
With two bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs, this charming full-sized home is equally well-adapted to a family with older children, or empty nesters who wish to have space to accommodate grandchildren.
The first impression in the vaulted entry is one of elegance. The entry and the formal living room are both vaulted to the second floor. The landing at the top of the curving stairway overlooks the living room.
An impression of spaciousness continues in the kitchen and the adjacent family room. The kitchen is open with a bay window in the nook and a built-in desk. The walk-in pantry has plenty of cupboards.
This design makes excellent use of interesting angles and spaces. A hutch is tucked into an angle in the dining room and a fireplace in another angle in the family room. A small half bath is conveniently close to everything.
The master suite has a large walk-in closet and French doors leading to the outside. The bath is equipped with a spa tub and a shower, both brightened by glass blocks. A sliding door provides privacy for the shower and toilet.
The utility room has a laundry sink and appliances, and the two-car garage includes extra space for a workbench and storage.
