This contempora­ry-style brick ranch home, originally built in 1998, is located near Locust Hill Golf Course in North River Estates in Green Township. It is in the Southeaste­rn Local School District.

A concrete driveway leads to the three-car attached garage with openers, and a concrete walkway connects the driveway to the covered front porch with concrete floor. The front door is covered by a storm door and has two rectangula­r decorative windows on the top.

The front entry is open to the formal dining room, which has a vaulted ceiling and a decorative pendant light. There is another pendant light above the entry way. Neutral carpeting flows from the front door into the dining room and great room, which is completely open to the dining area and entry.

The great room has a ceiling fan, vaulted ceiling, brick woodburnin­g fireplace with insert, and a decorative wooden shelf above one wall. A doorway from the great room leads to the kitchen and breakfast area.

The kitchen has hardwood flooring, granite counters, cherry wood cabinets, a breakfast bar, a ceiling fan and recessed lighting and stainless appliances — including a French door refrigerat­or, dishwasher, double-oven range and microwave.
