Welcome to 609 Amelia Avenue, a one-of-a-kind offering in Stonebridge! More than just an elusive ranch opportunity, this wonderful home rests on a picturesque parcel that lives like a private retreat. The curb appeal is amazing, but the experience continues well beyond the first impression, as the interior and exterior alike showcase the meticulous maintenance and bountiful love poured into it by only its second owners. Beyond the cozy covered front porch, a masterfully-designed floor plan awaits, combining warmth with functionality throughout. Offering just under 2, 900 square feet of thoughtful, spacious design (and that's before you factor in the 4-season room - more on that below), beautiful updates and appointments are found at every turn, accentuated by the gleaming hardwoods through the living areas. The east side of the home offers a living room built for comfort, highlighted by a mantled fireplace with gas logs, along with the two secondary bedrooms, each with an adjacent and beautifully finished full bathroom. Past the living room, you'll find a centrally located dining room and a stunning kitchen, the latter of which features granite countertops, a centerpiece island with storage and seating for four, two pantries, stainless steel appliances, an induction cooktop, convection oven and a vented hood. The natural flow continues to the breathtaking west side of the home, featuring tongue-and-groove vaulted wooden ceilings. Beginning with an off-kitchen dining/sitting area, one direction guides you toward the half bathroom, laundry room and stairwell to the amazing attic space, which features an abundance of floored storage. To the other direction, a set of double doors leads to the aforementioned fully enclosed and temperature-controlled (ductless) 4-season room, an area you may not want to leave once you experience the soothing natural light and scenic views of the pristinely-landscaped natural backdrop. This space offers year-round enjoyment and a seamless connection to the outdoors. Another set of double-doors provides access to the similarly well-lit sitting area off of the primary suite, which is traditionally accessible from the main hallway. The gracious primary suite includes his and hers closets, along with a tastefully updated bathroom. Wall to wall carpeting provides comfortable flooring in the bedrooms and beautiful tile flooring complete the bathrooms. While there are too many updates and features to list here (see the attached Features Sheet), some of the touches that further elevate this offering include five skylights, energy efficient windows, plantation shutters, a whole home stereo system, a whole home water filter and softener, and a reverse osmosis system. And that's just the interior! The exterior offerings abound, featuring an acre parcel, a greenhouse, a raised garden bed, a fenced yard, a storage shed, and an encapsulated crawl space. Situated in the heart of Stonebridge, this home offers convenient access to top-tier community amenities, and it is convenient to North Raleigh shopping and dining, downtown Raleigh and Durham, I-540 and so much more! You do not want to miss out on this opportunity!
