A PEACEFUL SETTING

The open kitchen has convenient access to the formal dining room. The sink window affords a view of the backyard and screened porch.

A well-maintained ranch nestled in a neighborhood on a quiet city street is an appealing find in today's hustle-and-bustle world. With trees to shade the front and rear, you'll want to spend a lot of time outdoors. Just imagine a back-yard picnic under the cool shade of large pines. Kids love to roam and play with "man's best friend," but having a dog in the city limits can sometimes present a problem.

That won't be the case here. A fenced back yard keeps kids and dog in toe, but when you can't be out, your pet will be comfortable in the large, well-shaded dog pen. The pen stands next to an oversized storage shed. The shed is not only large enough for lawn and garden tools and a workbench but will easily house mowers and bikes as well.

When it's time to relax, take a few minutes to soothe those tired, achy muscles in the comfort of the hot tub. Then retire to the screened porch so you can kick back, relax and enjoy the remainder of the day.

Don't fret if you get caught inside for awhile. You're sure to enjoy the special amenities this home has to offer.

Wilson Art flooring graces the kitchen and dining area. Deep oak cabinets and a large pantry provide ample kitchen storage. Preparing meals will be a cinch using the Jenn Air range.

You'll have a perfect view of the back yard from the corner windows in the dining room. Close the vertical blinds when you're ready for privacy. Easy access to the one-car garage and attic storage is available from the dining room.

The dining room is accessible from the living room as well as the kitchen. The circular plan helps with the flow of air throughout the rooms. The living room's wood burning fireplace stands ready to chase away the late evening chill. A tiled entry and paneling on one living room wall are added features.

Cooling costs will be kept to a minimum thanks to the attic fan in the hallway. Open the windows and let the fan stir the breezes.

His and hers closets help to simplify the storage in the master bedroom. Linens could be stored in the hall closet freeing space in the bathroom closet. Each corner bedroom has its own large closet. Windows on two walls in each bedroom let in plenty of natural light.

The partially-finished area of the full basement will get plenty of use. A fourth bedroom is located downstairs so even a large family will have plenty of room. The area would also be great for a craft or sewing room. The kids might even want to move the computer downstairs and use the room for a quiet study spot.

Listen to music, watch a video, play games or just relax in the large family room/sitting area. A half bath is close at hand. For added convenience, a shower has been installed in the laundry room.

Storage shelves are already in place in the furnace room/work area of the basement.
