Buystedt has many unusual features

The Buystedt (404-54) is unique in design as it has large courtyard in the front enclosed by a fence that matches the home. As you face this 2,568 square foot home, the two-car garage is on the left and the extra bedrooms are on the right. The porch area is covered and runs along the courtyard.

Once inside the entryway, you face a display case designed to hold the family treasures. Overhead are two medium sized skylights that allow sunlight to bath the entryway. Behind the case is a long "L" shaped room that has a formal vaulted dining room on the left and a formal vaulted living room on the right. At the corner is a gas fireplace that can be shared by both rooms.

The master suite is located behind the garage and has amenities not normally found in master suites. It contains French doors that open to the outside, two skylights for the natural look, a huge walk-in closet and a master bath. Between the main part of the suite and bathroom is an area for a sitting room with a linen closet. It has two windows that look out onto the back yard. Also connected to this area is a den that can be used as an office or a library or even Dad's hideaway.

The kitchen is located at the rear of the home and is a great size. It has all the fixtures conveniently located in a semi-circle with a very large eating bar. There are also two skylights located in this area to bring in the sunlight and brighten the morning. A large walk-in pantry is available for storing surplus food. There is also a small storage cabinet next to the pantry that houses the water heater and room for small appliances.

The family room is next to the kitchen with French doors to the deck out back, two large windows, and two skylights. This home, with all the skylights, should be bathed in natural light, not requiring nearly as many electrical lights.

Bedroom two and a guest suite are located to the front of the home. The guest suite also has French doors that open to the yard area. It has its own bath with a tub, full walk-in closet, and large windows. The second bedroom has a bath across the hall with a shower.
