Home on cul-de-sac has fenced yard, deck, patio
Contributing Writer
Tucked back along a cul-de-sac within the Walnut Hills Estates of Centerville, this cedar-sided two-story has had several updates and is more spacious than its curbside view.
Listed for $379,977 by Better Homes and Gardens Big Hill Real Estate, the two-story at 5015 Alpine Rose Court has about 3,550 square feet of living space within three levels. The house is at the end of a cul-de-sac with a tree-lined back yard, and extra parking pad near the two-car, attached garage.
Part of the back yard has been fenced with a wrought-iron fence, and there is a two-level composite deck with a wrought-iron railing and steps that lead down to a paver-brick patio, part of which is covered. A second-story balcony is accessible from two bedrooms and has a small storage nook.
Formal entry opens into a two-story foyer with ceramic-tile flooring and a spindled-accented wood staircase that leads to the balcony hallway. To the left are the formal living and dining rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows and wood-plank flooring.
The wood flooring was installed about two years ago and continues into the kitchen, breakfast room and great room. Mahogany cabinets fill three walls of the kitchen and include a buffet counter, a pantry, an island and a peninsula counter that offers seating for four. Some of the hanging cabinets have glass doors, and there are beveled countertops. A double sink is below a window.
A wood-burning fireplace is the centerpiece to the great room and has a tile hearth and a wood-beam mantel. Stained-glass windows accent a corner of the room, and patio doors open to the composite deck.
A door off the great room opens into a pantry, and a short hallway leads to the laundry room, a half bathroom with pedestal sink and access to the oversized, two-car garage.
Upstairs are four bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The main bedroom has a vaulted ceiling with two skylights and patio doors that open to the rear balcony deck. The divided bath has a whirlpool tub, double-sink tall vanity and mirrored linen closet. The walk-in shower has Corian surround and glass doors. The walk-in closet is large with built-ins.
Double doors open off the balcony hallway into the smallest of the upstairs bedrooms. This bedroom has patio doors that open to the rear balcony.
An open staircase off the foyer leads to the lower-level hallway with sconce accent lights. A sliding barn door opens into a combination recreation and family room with wood flooring and a stone, wood-burning fireplace. Patio doors open to the paver-brick patio and fenced back yard.
Continuing down the hallway, there is a bonus room set up as a hobby or playroom, a third full bathroom with tub/shower and a fifth bedroom with a large window and sliding-door closet.
