First time on the market for this lovingly maintained Parkwood custom home! Original owners have kept many of the original features that they personally designed in 1976. The front door you see from the street is actually the courtyard door. Upon entering, you are surrounded by the beautiful plants and a serene water feature. A large honey locusts provides shade to make this a perfect secluded spot to enjoy your morning coffee. The enormous windows on both sides of the living room provide plenty of natural light and a view of this courtyard and the magnificent backyard. Next to the living room is the family room with a moss rock fireplace and a cozy atmosphere to read or watch tv. There is a separate dining room on the other side of the living room, and the large kitchen provides additional seating. With two bar seats at the peninsula and a breakfast nook with a view into the courtyard, there is plenty of room to gather and entertain. Loads of cabinets fill the kitchen, and new lighting makes this already bright space even more functional. Upstairs, the spacious primary bedroom has the original 3/4 bath attached and two closet spaces. There is also a door to a very private balcony where all you can see are the numerous neighborhood trees. Three generously-sized additional bedrooms and a shared bath complete the upper level. Outside in the backyard, there are two separate composite decks, one is off the back door and is partially covered by the balcony above. The other is in the rear of the yard situated under the canopy of three gorgeous crab apple trees. Both corners of the yard are filled with a variety of plants and flowers, providing blooms from early spring through fall. The seller is a master gardener, and it shows in this show-stopping quarter acre lot where you can enjoy all of the birds and butterflies that share this space. A beautiful and unique home, plus one of the most sought after neighborhoods in mid-town combine to make this quite the treasure.
