Facade makes Riverside stand out

With a more traditional farmhouse style, the Riverside (D8522) has many additional features that make it an eye-catcher. The large column posts on the covered porch, the numerous windows, the double louvered vents at the peak of the two different rooflines, and the brick that has been used for cornices on the two-car garage and across the face of the home all add to the attractive facade.

Entering the two-story Riverside has one's guests facing the long great room at the rear of the home. To their left are French doors that open into a den or optional living room. Because it is set off from the rest of the home by the elegant doors, it would make a wonderful retreat from the family or a great place to have an in-home office if needed.

The great room has a large fireplace on the rear wall and there are small arches at the entry. To the left of the great room is the nook and kitchen. The nook has patio doors opening to the rear deck and backyard. An eating bar faces the nook. Shaped like a "C", the kitchen has a large amount of counter space and cabinets. It has a pantry on the wall between the kitchen and the great room.

The right side of the Riverside is the master suite. It has a large main suite area with an elongated walk-in closet on the right side. The master bath has an oversized spa tub as well as a shower. Dual sinks with a linen closet are on the opposite wall. Just outside the master suite is the utility room with a door to the garage and a half bath.

As one goes up the stairs to the second floor, on the landing half way up is a window seat. Continuing on up stairs are three other bedrooms and a game/family room. Bedroom two has a corner walk-in closet while bedrooms three and four each have wall closets. A full bath with a tub is located between bedrooms three and four, but bedroom four actually has a full bath with a shower. This would be ideal for a guest suite if needed.

In the hall outside the bedrooms is a computer loft, ideal for studying and doing homework. Books line the wall opposite. The large game room is up a couple of steps from the level of the bedrooms.

As a bonus, if needed, there is an unfinished basement with 1,583 square feet of additional living space. This would be ideal for a large family room or for more bedrooms if needed.
