Rivers Edge is a lovely community of custom homes about 5 miles out River Road from the Village. On mostly 2 acre lots, the homes are mostly upscale and built in the mid-1980's.

This home is one level rambler with a long driveway. The front walk leads you to the formal entry. You step into a large tiled foyer that is large enough to host a cocktail party. The white tile looks great and makes the room seem more expansive. An adjacent Living room is separate and formal and an office to the right side is plenty large for your home business.

The kitchen has been completely redone - with granite counters and nice appliances. It is large with plenty of counter space and a freestanding stainless ventilation hood over the cook top. The counter here overhangs to provide a nice space to eat - or watch the chef prepare dinner while having a pre-dinner cocktail. The granite and cabinets wrap around this area to form a nice butlers pantry. This would be ideal for the home chef with lots of large pots - a cookbook collection - or multiple appliance that need storage.

The breakfast area looks out on the yard - which is ample on this 2 acre lot. This is a nice piece of property with plenty of room for recreation or gardening.

A large Family room with beamed ceilings is great space next to the breakfast area. Hardwood floors are lovely - and the large stone fireplace beautifully anchors the room. What a great spot for the family to get together and watch TV or home theatre.

The living quarters are on the left wing of the home. The master is large and bright with windows all along the back of the home. The bath is nice size and nicely updated. All of the other bedrooms are large and spacious. Hardwood is in fabulous shape and adds a sense of class to all the living space.

The basement is small and not finished to the same level as the upstairs. This is great space for the kids - and is currently set up as a practice space for a band.

This is the same floor plan as a home that sold at 13509 Maidstone earlier this year at $925,000. That home was not updated in the kitchen or baths but had a large full finished basement that was 4 times the size of this property. The lot on that home was not quite as nice as this one - but the other home had a pool and greenhouse. The market is much better now than it was when the other home went under contract. This home at $1,095,000 is a bit aggressive but not unrealistic. I see it going to settlement for just over $1mm when all is said and done.
