Looking for more yard space, fewer neighbors and an idyllic setting while remaining within Washington Township's conveniently bustling suburban landscape? Tucked away in the quiet and highly desirable Academy Hills neighborhood is this lovely, custom-built colonial which has just been freshly painted and carpeted throughout in neutral earth-tones. Boasting 5 bedrooms and a 2/3 (0.62) acre wooded lot that backs up Mantua Creek, this home is a rare Washington Township find. From the moment you pull up to the home, you will be delighted by the quaint covered porch and paver driveway that enhances the home's inviting curb appeal. Walking in the front door you are greeted by the foyer area, which is flanked by the formal living room on the left and the formal dining room on the right. Laminate wood flooring leads you from the foyer entry into the eat-in kitchen with its efficient, u-shaped layout that offers a functional workspace for meal prep while allowing you remain engaged with family and guests. Granite Transformation countertops balance dark wood cabinets while natural light streams in through the sliding glass door that overlooks the wooded backyard offering both privacy and pleasing views of the natural beauty of your surroundings. Off the kitchen is the sunken family room with wood beam ceiling accents and a stone-front fireplace that work together to add a touch of coziness to the open design of this space. Rounding out the main floor is the powder room and laundry area with access to the 2-car, side entry garage. Upstairs, the 2nd floor boasts a master bedroom with en suite bath and walk-in closet, plus FOUR additional bedrooms and full, hall bathroom. The smallest of the bedrooms has built-in shelves and is currently utilized as a study but would also be ideally suited as a home-office, guest room, craft room or dressing room. The unfinished basement offers ample room for storage or finish off this area for additional living space. Pride of ownership is evident as these original owners have nicely maintained the home with updates and upgrades that, in addition to the recent cosmetic refreshes, include: Gutter Guards on all gutters, new hot water heater (2019), new HVAC (2018), new well tank/pump (2018), replacement roof and siding (2010) and updated paver driveway (2010).
