This custom-built, brick-and-siding two-story is on a wooded lot in the Aberfelda Hills subdivision. Built in 1986, the home is listed for $565,000 and is in the Clark-Shawnee local school district.
An asphalt driveway winds through the wooded property and leads to the side-entry, three-car garage. The driveway is oversized and has room for additional parking at the front of the home.
Concrete steps lead from the driveway to the front entry. There is a metal railing surrounding the upper steps and front stoop. The front door has two sidelights and three transom windows.
The entry features ceramic tile and a lighting fixture. Carpeted steps with a wood railing lead form the entry to the second floor. The entry is open to the living room, which features carpeting, a cathedral ceiling and three large wood windows. There is a cutaway on the second-floor landing that overlooks the living room.
To the left of the entry is the formal dining room with French doors. This room is carpeted, has a chair rail, crown molding, wood windows and a decorative chandelier. The dining room is open to the kitchen.
The kitchen has wood parquet flooring, recessed lighting, off-white cabinets and an island with gas cooktop and room for seating. There are two decorative light fixtures over the island. Appliances include a double-door refrigerator, double wall ovens, a dishwasher, wine cooler and microwave. The kitchen also has quartz countertops and a tile backsplash.
The kitchen is open to the family room with carpeting, built-in coffee maker and wine bar. The family room has a wood-burning fireplace with brick mantle and surround and glass doors and recessed lighting.
