COVER HOME:

285 LINCOLNSHIRE DRIVE, CONCORD TWP.

A metal roof covers the front porch while stonework creates a textured apron to the frame siding and wide-plank woodwork that frames windows and doors of this ranch home in Concord Twp.

The same attention to details continues inside with manufactured hardwood floors, subway glass-tile accented walls, sliding barn doors, wainscoting and stone accents throughout the main and finished lower levels.

Listed for $685,000 by Sibcy Cline Realtors, the custom-built ranch at 285 Lincolnshire Drive has about 4,530 square feet of living space. The open split floor plan features three bedrooms on the main level, a second main bedroom suite within the finished lower level and an additional 658 square feet of outdoor living space under a wood-accented cathedral ceiling.

The half-acre property has a concrete driveway that leads to a three-car, side-entry garage, and a metal fence surrounds the tree-lined, semi-private back yard.

The back porch has an attached sun patio that extends into the fenced back yard. CONTRIBUTED PHOTO BY KATHY TYLER

A Shaker-style front door opens into a foyer with a tray ceiling accented with hidden lights. Wainscoting accents the foyer walls, including a partial wall that offsets the wide stairwell to the lower level. A sliding barn door opens from the foyer into a multipurpose room currently set up as a music room.

Distressed gray wood flooring fills the foyer and continues into the main social areas that create one space under a gambrel roof with king cross-beam trusses.

A stone, gas fireplace with raised hearth and wood-beam mantel is flanked by built-in cabinetry, and a wrought-iron railing wraps around and down the wooden staircase that is filled with natural light through a front-facing window.

An island offers breakfast bar seating for up to four within the great room side, while on the kitchen side, the island includes a double sink and dishwasher within a quartz countertop. White cabinetry is accented by a subway, glass-tile backsplash. A stainless-steel vent hood is above the gas cooktop, and double wall ovens are near a coffee station. A frosted-glass door opens into a walk-in, corner pantry.
