Stately home offers excellent floor plan
With five bedrooms, three-and-ahalf baths, a study and more, this Benton home is ideal for a family. The home rests on a 0.36-acre lot in Hurricane Lake Estates.
Inside the arched double front doors, the foyer is lit by a chandelier and opens to the study, formal dining room and living room, all floored in hardwood. French doors lead to the study, which features one of the home’s three fireplaces and could be used as a fifth bedroom. The living room also centers around a fireplace, this one finished with a tile surround and a gorgeous mantelpiece and overmantel.
Open to the living room, the tiled kitchen is fitted with stained-wood cabinetry with Lazy Susans, a breakfast bar, an island, granite counters, tile backsplashes and a pantry. Appliances include an oven, a microwave, a smooth-surface electric cooktop with a downdraft vent, and a dishwasher. The breakfast area has a boxed chandelier and opens to one of the home’s two covered patios, and the formal dining room features a crystal and brass chandelier and a large arched window.
Located on the main level, the carpeted master bedroom offers a fireplace and a sitting area and opens to a private patio. The tiled bath has his-and-hers vanities, a private water closet, a jetted tub, a separate shower and a walkin closet. Upstairs are three carpeted bedrooms; each has a walk-in closet. One of the bedrooms would be perfect for use as a den, game room or media room. There are two upstairs bathrooms. One bathroom has a single-sink vanity, and the other has two sinks; both have tub/shower combinations.
The main-level powder room features a granite-topped vanity with a glass vessel sink. Other features of the home include a laundry room with built-ins, window treatments, crown molding and extra trimwork, a three-car side-entry garage, a fully fenced backyard and more.
