Imagine stepping onto a large covered front porch, where the gentle hum of the neighborhood invites you to sit and stay awhile. This porch, with its inviting bench seating and smooth stone cap, runs the full length of the house, offering a perfect spot for morning coffee or evening relaxation. As you open the front door, you're greeted by the warm glow of recessed LED lighting reflecting off the rich, engineered wood floors that span the entire first floor. The huge family room, living room, and dining room each boast elegant tray ceilings, creating a sense of space and sophistication. The heart of this home is undoubtedly the kitchen. Picture yourself preparing meals on stunning quartz countertops that cascade in a waterfall design.

This kitchen isn't just functional; it's a space where culinary dreams come to life. Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms await, each featuring brand new carpeting with thick padding that feels luxurious underfoot. The bathrooms, with their exquisite tile work, offer a serene escape from the everyday hustle and bustle. Imagine soaking in a tub surrounded by beautiful tiles, feeling all your worries melt away. Storage is never an issue here, with two huge walk-in closets upstairs ready to accommodate your wardrobe and more. And for the practicalities of life, an energy-efficient front-load washer and dryer are conveniently located on the main floor within the home. Behind the scenes, all the essential systems—HVAC, electrical, and plumbing—are brand new, offering you peace of mind and comfort as well as brand new energy efficient vinyl windows throughout. Worry free living for a long time to come! The outdoor space is just as impressive. Step out onto the spacious covered back porch, which provides easy access to the backyard—a perfect spot for summer barbecues or simply enjoying the fresh air. The oversized four-car detached garage, complete with a new blue tooth door opener and access door, ensures that your vehicles and storage needs are well taken care of. New concrete walkways lead you to both the front and rear porches, while a concrete perimeter ledge encircles the entire home, adding to its sturdy appeal. Fresh landscaping and a paved driveway for four vehicles enhance the home's curb appeal, welcoming you home each day. Beneath it all, a full unfinished basement with a newly finished floor offers a blank canvas for your imagination. With inside access and walk-up steps to the outside, this space is perfect for storage or potential future customization. 218 S. Spring Garden St. isn't just a house—it's a story waiting to be written. A story of family gatherings, cozy evenings, and new beginnings.
