Room for Everyone, and a Backyard Worth Coming Home To!!
Some houses make you choose: space for guests or space to work, a big kitchen or a big yard.
This one in Matthews doesn't ask you to pick. It offers five bedrooms and four and a half baths
on two floors, with a covered front porch that runs nearly 30 feet across the front and mature
trees all around.
Step inside and the foyer sets the tone with wainscoting, crown molding, and a staircase with
iron balusters. Beside it, a dining room with a tray ceiling and columns, and beyond a pair of
French doors, a main-level bedroom that would make a bright home office.
The heart of the house is the kitchen. A big granite island seats four, with white cabinetry, a gas
cooktop, a wall oven, and a pantry close at hand. It opens to a living room with a corner
stacked-stone fireplace and a wall of windows facing the backyard. A breakfast nook leads
straight out to the patio. A second main-level bedroom has a full bath right next door.
Upstairs, the primary suite feels like its own retreat: a tray ceiling, a large walk-in closet, and a
bath with a soaking tub, a glass-enclosed shower, and a double vanity. Three more bedrooms, a
24-foot bonus room under dormer ceilings, and a laundry room with a utility sink round out the
floor.
Out back, two paver patios, a river-rock dry creek bed, and a stepping-stone path wind through
a wooded yard with a black metal fence. A two-car side-load, 1-car front load garage and a mudroom bench
handle the everyday traffic
