Description

Welcome to your Wetherburn dream home, in a setting that feels extinct: Deep setbacks, mature-tree lined streets, and lots that have room to breathe. This home has been thoughtfully renovated by the homeowners from top to bottom. Inside, you’ll immediately notice the highest-grade Teka hardwood flooring flowing throughout the main living spaces, complemented by custom cabinetry throughout the entire home: Custom cabinets in the kitchen, custom bookshelves near the fireplace , custom-built vanity in the primary bath, and a custom built coffee bar and storage next to the kitchen. Now, the kitchen is a true showpiece with soapstone countertops and a built-in Sub-Zero refrigerator (retail value over $12,000!) included with the home. The finished basement was crafted with health and function in mind, featuring strategically placed cork flooring—a far superior choice to carpet or LVP in a lower level thanks to its antimicrobial properties. Upstairs features a versatile landing area with a convenient laundry room and four spacious bedrooms. Both full bathrooms have been tastefully renovated, blending style and function. Major updates add peace of mind, including a 2021 water heater and heating and cooling systems replaced in 2016. Step outside to enjoy a true flat yard and a screened-in porch, perfectly framed by lush, mature landscaping—an ideal spot for relaxing or entertaining. This is rare timing with the rates just now starting to drop significantly- Don't make the mistake of waiting!

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
