The main suite is a fantastic and luxurious space; this bright space has a tray ceiling and great surrounding light along with an attached sitting room. The ensuite bath is completely renovated, with two separate vanities and a custom frameless walk-in shower with natural limestone tile and a rain shower head and bar-mounted shower head, updated LED lighting as well as a Fanimation fan with light, along with two huge walk-in closets also with updated LED lighting.

The level lot creates a comfortable and inviting outdoor space, which backs up to a serene wooded area. The oversized two car garage is a solid space with epoxy flooring and new doors and openers. Further, this home received numerous big investments in recent years rendering a premium assurance of important conveniences and comforts. A new architectural-shingle roof was replaced six years ago, along with all new shutters and screens throughout the home; the home has dual-zone natural gas heating and the front (West) facing windows are solar-tinted; there is a brand new (2018) Rheem 75 gallon power-vent natural gas water heater as well, which cleverly re circulates hot water where its needed most. A recent Home Energy Audit resulted in additional insulation, caulking, and new attic blanket to greatly save on energy costs. A whole-home humidifier is a great touch as well! The home is located within the wonderful area of Mt Airy, with parks and playgrounds all around. Nearby Watkins Park is a one-stop attraction for all sorts of recreational activities, offering a sand volleyball court, basketball court, lighted tennis courts, dog park, and soccer/baseball/softball fields. Main Street Mt. Airy is a fantastic and bustling area, with local-favorite eateries and shopping, and seasonal farmer's markets are a great lifestyle perk as well.
