Welcome home to this bright and inviting 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence one of Ballwin's favorite neighborhoods. The open floor plan is filled with natural light and combines lovely updates and relaxed style, with over 2,580 square feet of living space. The spectacular great room features a vaulted, beamed ceiling, gas fireplace, built-in bookcase and large windows with custom, cordless window blinds. It adjoins the bright, open concept dining room overlooking a newer, maintenance-free deck and the .26 acre backyard. Nearby, the kitchen is highlighted by a vaulted ceiling, skylight, stainless steel appliances and a custom tile backsplash. The adjoining breakfast room has ample space for a full sized breakfast table. The generous, main level primary suite includes a double door closet and cordless window blinds. The ensuite bathroom features an adult height vanity with granite countertops and a shower. Two additional bedrooms share a hall bathroom with a combination tub and shower. The walkout lower level is standout, with a half bath and two adjoining recreation spaces--one featuring a bar complete with granite countertops and stainless bar sink. A bonus room is the perfect spot for a home office, workout space or playroom. Ample unfinished storage space, laundry hookups and a spacious cedar closet complete the lower level layout. Newer French doors walk out to a lovely patio, and the professionally landscaped, fenced yard is well-designed and private, backing to open, common ground. An oversized 2-car garage adds convenience, and Ballwin's popular Rustic Valley neighborhood includes a community pool.
