Description

1209 Appaloosa Trail is an unassuming, but charming home, with all of the integral qualities of a good solid start for the well-grounded family looking for a strong home, neighborhood and community to grow, well into the future. This 3,335 square foot, 5-bedroom 3 bath home offers no less than 12 rooms, a tremendous amount of space and lots of storage. Sitting on .93-acre land site, every level of this home offers features that serve the family well. This home features a fireplace in the large family room with views of your own .25 acre forest just outside the two patio doors. Kitchen offers a separate breakfast room with seating at the peninsula between the two rooms and a huge patio door leading to the sprawling deck. The 12′ bowed casement floor to ceiling windows in the living room offer stretching views of the huge yard and forested neighborhood from the formal dining room and living room. The large master bedroom has 3 separate closets, a seating area and a full private bath. The lower level is an English basement with plenty of daylight from the double windows in the recreational area and bedroom. It features an entire new home, or apartment like a mother-in-law arrangement, if not a place for the kids to retreat with friends, with a separate entrance just off the garage. The home is turn key and worry free where the home’s mechanicals have all been replaced, along with the roof, and driveway. The home offers a brand-new furnace (2024) and A/C compressor (2025), hot water tank (2021) and brand-new water softener with 3 year warranty (2026). Other improvements include a front entryway floor and entry door, drywall and finishing to the 2.5 car garage, all three bathrooms have had updates with the main bath being fully replaced. The roof is no more than 12 years old, and the driveway was fully removed and replaced to carry heavy loads. With major mechanical expenses, and so much being replaced and updated, this house offers peace of mind. Would you like to have a fresh new coat of paint applied? Owners are offering a $3,000 credit to provide finishes where you would like them applied. Regardless, this house, property, neighborhood and community is worth a closer look to get a chance at having a home that offers so much for the family who will appreciate a large home in a great neighborhood for their loved ones to grow happily ever after.
