Colonial

Welcome to 161 Candlewyck in the ever popular community of Candlewyck! This home has been lovingly maintained by the original owners. As you enter the home you will love the wide open foyer with rich hardwood floors. The living room is to the right and it is adjacent to the dining room. You could really have a long table for the holiday dinners if you wanted to use that full length of space! The living room and dining room are very large and truly are great for entertaining. The kitchen is full of cabinetry and counter space for cooking and baking! There's no lack of storage here! And the warm wood cabinets and granite counters add a nice touch! You can have many barstools around the kitchen counter or make use of the breakfast room for daily meals. The family room is huge and it has a gas fireplace for the cool weather nights. There is a door to the back deck from the breakfast room. This composite deck is wonderful for your morning coffee or evening cocktail. The views of the flat back yard are very nice. You can also step down to the paver patio and use all of this wonderful outdoor space for warm weather entertaining. Back inside you will find a first-floor primary suite that is amazing! There is a sitting room and a large bedroom as well as a walk-in closet and secondary closet. The cherry hardwood flooring and plantation shutters are so beautiful in these rooms. The primary bathroom has double sinks, a soaking tub and shower stall. The half bath and laundry room complete the first floor. The second floor has three bedrooms. One of the bedrooms in particular is huge! There is also a loft area that would make a great office or homework area for children. The hall bath is in pristine condition with double sinks and a tub/shower combination. The unfinished walk-out basement is great for storage or future finished space.The owners have done some wonderful updates. The stucco was removed and redone by Murtaugh Brothers in 2011. The composite deck was just done in 2023. Hardwood flooring was added to the living room, dining room and primary suite in 2012. The retractable awning was added in 2007.
