$254,000

Immaculate home in Ivory's Pointe Meadows subdivision just south of Thanksgiving Point. Close to shopping, elementary school and easy freeway access.

This is what it currently looks like, which really doesn't do it justice to how much curb appeal this home really has. The yard looks beautiful in the Spring and Summer! The lawn has been treated the past couple years by a lawn company that has gotten it into great shape. The yard is fully landscaped and has auto sprinklers.

The garage door has extra height to allow for taller vehicles. There is also an access door on the side of the garage (so nice to have!), with pavers on each side of the door landing to put the garbage cans on.

Living Room

This is the "formal" living room. It is the room you first see when you come in the front door. It has a good size closet where you can hang coats, etc... It is painted a nice, neutral sage green color.



Here's a view towards the entryway:
The area above the closet is a wide open space that helps the room feel spacious. It has a small chandelier light hanging really high from the ceiling up above the entryway.


The stairs lead to a landing where there are 3 bedrooms. Then you go up the next half flight for the "Grand Master Suite".

Kitchen/Dining Area

The cabinets in the kitchen (and throughout the house) are an upgraded maple. The appliances are all upgraded. (The dishwasher, range, and microwave are all staying.) The sink has a nice Moen pull out faucet. Can seat 3 (possibly 4) at the bar. Dining area seats a square table for 8 comfortably. It has a large pantry with wood shelving.





Family Room

The family room is just down a half flight of stairs from the kitchen. The garage door leads into this room. There are sliding glass doors that lead into the backyard. It also has the door that leads to the basement. It is wired for phone, cable, and internet. It has been painted a nice, neutral brown color.




Master Suite

You have a whole level to yourself for the Master Suite! Nice spacious room with a large window and window seat. The room is wired for phone and cable.






The bathroom has solid surface countertops with integrated double sinks. Separate garden tub and large shower. There is a separate room for the toilet. A nice no-door archway leads you into the large walk-in-closet with wood shelving and plenty of space. It also has a good-sized linen closet with wood shelving.





Bedrooms

All 5 other bedrooms (there are 3 more upstairs and 2 downstairs) have LARGE dual-door closets with wood shelving and rods. Two of the rooms (upstairs) have window seats. One of the rooms is wired for phone and internet (upstairs). Three of the other rooms are wired for cable (1 up, 2 down).











This is a closet in one of the basement bedrooms. It is currently used as a "toy room".

Main Bathroom

The main bathroom is pretty roomy. The vanity is maple wood and is quite large and has a solid surface with integrated sink. There are a couple drawers and lots of storage underneath the sink.




Linen Closet

There is a LARGE linen closet with wood shelving in the landing area outside of the bedrooms. Just like the closets in the bedrooms, it has dual doors with knobs - one side has a slide lock that goes into the top casing and the other door latches into the first door.

Basement Bathroom

The basement bathroom has tile floors and a large walk in shower with tile surround.



Attic

The access panel to the attic is in a very convenient location on the ceiling of the landing to the bedrooms. We have laid some sturdy wood paneling down in parts of it to be able to store stuff up there. You could fit many, many boxes up there in the area where wood has been lain, plus there's plenty more area to work with.


Backyard

Here is what the backyard currently looks like, which just like the picture of the front of the house really doesn't do it justice. It is a really nice, fully fenced, spacious backyard with a large concrete patio...perfect for BBQ's. The lot size is .18 acres. There are more pics in the next post that will give you a better idea of what it looks like in the Spring/Summer with a beautiful, GREEN lawn! :)



Spring/Summer pics of the yard

Some people have asked to see pics of what the yard looks like in the Spring and Summer. I don't specifically have any of just the yard, but here are some random pics that I found that can kind of give you an idea:

This is the berm in the front yard.


This is when we finished the side fencing last year - the part that goes from the sides to the house.




There's PLENTY of room to run around!



There's some curbing in the backyard against the house. We planted shrubs last year in part of it, and in the other end I was able to do a few tomato plants.
