Open staircases allow for volume ceilings giving this two-story house a spacious floor plan. Add a finished basement and this brick home has three levels of social areas.
Listed for $389,900 by Irongate Inc. Realtors, the home at 3103 Seton Hill Drive has about 2,910 square feet of living space plus an additional 1,200 square feet within the finished basement. The house is located within the Meadows of Kable’s Mill subdivision of Sugarcreek Twp.
The semi-private property has a rear wooden deck and a three-car garage.
Recent updates include a new roof in 2011 and wood flooring throughout the main level. Kitchen appliances, a water heater and water softener were also updated.
Formal entry opens within a two-story foyer with a spindle-accented staircase that wraps up to the second-floor hallway. The foyer has lighted artwork nooks and a plant shelf. Hardwood flooring fills the foyer and continues into the formal living and dining rooms. The living room has a bay window and both rooms have crown molding.
Double doors open off the foyer into an office or study. A hallway leads from the foyer to the back of the house and provides access to a half bathroom and the stairwell to the basement.
The kitchen, breakfast room and great room are one large open space. The dark flooring complements the white cabinetry of the kitchen, which includes an island and a planning desk. There are dark granite countertops, and a double sink is below a window.
Patio doors open off the breakfast room to the rear deck. The ceiling expands within the great room and vaults up to the upstairs loft. An open staircase accents one wall, and triple windows with transoms provide natural light. A stone, gas fireplace has a wood-beam mantel and has stonework that continues up to the ceiling. Spindles accent the loft which has carpeting and two windows.
A hallway leads from the loft, through the formal entry and ends at the main bedroom.
A cathedral ceiling peaks over the main bedroom, which has an updated full bathroom. The bath has a step-in shower, soaking tub, double-sink vanity, walk-in closet and ceramic-tile flooring. There are three more bedrooms and a full bathroom.
