This week’s featured home has four bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms and a four-car garage. The craftsman-style, two-story design is located on a flat, half-acre lot in the Brook Field subdivision near Stanwood.

Built by Seattle Pacific Homes Inc., the home is served by a septic system, Seven Lakes community water, a forced air gas furnace, built in security and central vacuum systems and Category V wiring. It’s close to Wenberg State Park, Lake Goodwin, Lake Crabapple and Kayak Point County Park.

Thoughtful attributes include hot and cold exterior hose bibs, an RV parking pad, a garage door opener with an exterior keypad, and a tandem garage door bay with single doors opening to the front and back.

Inside the two-story home are Brazilian cherry flooring accented with maple inlays, granite tile countertops, and ceramic tile flooring, countertops, backsplashes and surrounds.

The home also has formal millwork that includes crown moldings, chair railing and shadowboxing, as well as wood-wrapped windows, custom fireplace mantels, arched accents and rounded corners.

The main floor includes a foyer, formal living and dining rooms, an island-design kitchen with an informal eating area, a sprawling family room and a powder room.

A switchback staircase leads to a master suite, three additional bedrooms served by a full bath, a laundry room and an expansive bonus room.

Worthy of mention are 9-foot ceilings throughout the main floor, a double-coffered ceiling in the dining room and alder, raised panel cabinets with cherry stain in the kitchen.

The kitchen appliance package includes a built-in double wall oven and a four- burner, propane cook top.

The family room’s focal point is a gas fireplace with a granite tile hearth and border. The fireplace is framed by a formal wood surround and mantel, and is flanked by two alabaster wall sconces.

Upstairs, French doors open to the master suite’s large sleeping area that has a vaulted ceiling. A five-piece bathroom benefits from a 4-foot shower encased in tile, a soaker tub, a double vanity, an extended vanity mirror and a private toilet area.

Completing the suite is a generously proportioned walk-in wardrobe closet with multi-tiered, ventilated wire storage shelves.

Paned glass French doors open to an extra-large bonus room that is both functional and versatile. Features include a walk-in storage closet and both vertical and clerestory windows that allow natural light into the room.

All three bedrooms are spacious and are served by a full bath and a large utility room. The bathroom has a skylight and a double vanity that is topped with ceramic tile.

The laundry room includes built-in overhead cabinets and a built-in laundry tub with a tiled top and complementary vinyl flooring.
