Upon arrival to this home, you'll be greeted by a beautifully landscaped front yard full of mature camellias, crepe myrtles, azaleas, and sweet olives leading you to a sweeping screened-in front porch that is so quintessentially Belhaven. It's just a taste of what lies beyond the window-clad front door featuring sidelights, a transom window, and stained glass details. For a house built in 1989, it feels every bit as historic and charming as its surroundings. The entry hall opens onto a well-appointed dining room to the left, and a very large living room with a gas fireplace on the right side of the house. The living room could easily be divided into two separate seating areas/''rooms''. Beautifully stained wood floors and plantation shutters throughout give this spacious home a warm and cozy feeling. Just off of the dining and living rooms you'll find a newly renovated kitchen, keeping room, and half bath. The kitchen features granite countertops with a breakfast bar, and has stainless steel appliances including a Subzero refrigerator/freezer, a gas cooktop, a built-in oven and microwave, a wine refrigerator, and a dishwasher. Behind the kitchen bar you'll find the cozy keeping room currently being used as a playroom with windows overlooking the courtyard which is fully fenced and perfect for al fresco dining. The courtyard leads to the real hidden gem of this property which is a park-like fully fenced backyard on this 1 acre lot. The meticulously maintained yard has all of the charm of a secret garden with a huge variety of plantings including mature blueberry bushes, magnolias, and canna lilies just to name a few. All of the bedrooms in this house are upstairs as well as the laundry room. The hardwood floors and plantation shutters continuing throughout the entire the second floor.
