Park-like setting

Two-story features first-floor main bedroom suite.

- By Kathy Tyler Contributi­ng Writer

Tucked among the trees with a park-like patio setting, this brick two-story has a first-floor main bedroom, an updated main bathroom and outdoor space for relaxation.

Listed for $299,900 by Better Homes and Gardens Big Hill Real Estate, the house at 2890 Hickorywoo­d Drive has about 3,190 square feet of living space. Located in the Broken Woods subdivisio­n of Concord Twp., the property has mature trees along the backyard, several circular paver-brick patios with the main one having a stone wall surround, stone walking paths among the gardens, brick pillars with wrought-iron gate entrances and a separate garden shed with sloped roof and ramped double-door entry.

A paved driveway leads up to the side-entry, twocar garage and has an extra parking pad.

Volume ceilings and tall arched windows give the home’s interior a spacious feel. A grand, curved wooden staircase ascends up to a spindled-accented catwalk that crosses over the foyer and is open to the two-story great room. Double wooden doors, marble-tile flooring and a crystal chandelier create elegance to the foyer.

Tucked off the foyer is the entrance to a study with a wall of built-in bookcases and cabinetry. Tall windows provide natural light, and another door provides entrance to the main bathroom and bedroom suite.

Hand-painted faux details give the bathroom an oldworld charm, which con

trasts against the modern fixtures.

A granite countertop is on a hickory vanity, and two stainless-steel bowl sinks have wall-anchored faucets above each bowl. A skylight adds extra light above the sinks and into the walk-in shower.

The ceramic-tile shower has glass doors and accents, a seat, a jetted body wash and two shower heads.

There are two sliding-mirror closets and a private toilet room.

Double doors open from the bathroom into the main bedroom, which has access to the great room.

At the center of the house is the two-story great room, accented by a customdesi­gned gas fireplace.

Wall-to-ceiling design features create furniture nooks on each side of the fireplace, which has a marble surround and hearth. A tall window with arched window above provides natural light to the great room and the above catwalk.

Off the great room is a dining room with two windows and access to the updated kitchen.

Accessible from a short hallway from the foyer and the dining room the kitchen has wood laminate flooring, beveled-edged countertop­s, an appliance garage, a double-sink below a window and stainless-steel appliances. One wall has a buffet counter within the breakfast room, a pantry cabinet, refrigerat­or nook and a planning desk with open bookcases.

The breakfast room has a bay bump-out design with a door that opens to a side courtyard-like patio.

The hallway also leads to a half bathroom, a laundry room with storage close and utility closet and access to the oversized, two-car garage.

Upstairs, the catwalk crosses over the foyer and ends in a short hallway where two bedrooms and a full bathroom are located. Both bedrooms have angled ceilings treatments and sliding-door closets.

The bath divides the two rooms and has a singlesink vanity, tub/shower and ceramic-tile flooring.
