Custom-built one-owner home located on a quiet cul-de-sac in a premier south end neighborhood. Gemma Street has no through traffic and is close to schools and shopping. It is an ideal neighborhood to raise a family. This spacious raised ranch features over 2,700 sq ft of quality living space, including an eat-in kitchen, formal dining room, living room with 10 foot high ceilings, 3 generous-sized bedrooms, 3 updated full bathrooms, and a large lower-level family room with a gas fireplace and roughed-in wet bar. On both levels, you will find an abundance of window space, allowing for ample natural light throughout. The ultra-private backyard however is what sets this home apart from all others. Here you will find a large deck, ideal for entertaining or relaxing, beautifully maintained flower gardens, and a nicely treed hillside backdrop providing natural shelter and privacy. Note: the lot in this case goes back almost 300 feet, so this will never change. In the backyard, there is also an electric cable and breaker panel for a future hot tub, as well as a gas line for the barbecue. Other features include a two-car garage, an interlock driveway, a roughed-in sauna, roughed in central vac and one-year-old shingles (id:59126)
