Welcome to 606 Garden Gate Drive, your ideal retreat in the vibrant 55+ community of Spring Arbor. This meticulously maintained single family home shows pride in ownership throughout. As you approach the home, you're greeted by beautifully maintained landscaping, complete with a sprinkler system, and a welcoming covered porch. Upon entering, you're welcomed by a dramatic two-story foyer featuring wide plank wood floors, elegant wainscoting, crown molding, and double doors that open to a versatile office or bonus room. As you make your way toward the kitchen, you’ll pass a convenient coat closet, a beautifully appointed powder room, and a functional laundry room featuring a separate linen closet, countertop, and overhead storage. Just off the laundry room is access to the spacious two-car garage. Just before reaching the kitchen, you'll find stairs leading down to a full-size crawl space offering ample storage and housing the on-demand water heater. The heart of the home is a spacious open-concept kitchen, dining room, and living room—perfect for entertaining. The kitchen features a large walk-in pantry with wire shelving, white soft-close cabinetry, a tile backsplash, upgraded stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and a generous island with plenty of room for seating. A built-in buffet with a matching granite countertop adds both style and function. Expansive windows wrap around the space, flooding the room with natural light. The dining area is anchored by a beautiful, updated light fixture, while the living room boasts a vaulted ceiling with a ceiling fan and recessed lighting for added ambiance. Just off the dining and living area is a charming sunroom that opens to a screened porch with pull-down shades and an adjacent paver patio—ideal for indoor-outdoor living. Double doors lead to the serene primary bedroom, which features plush carpeting, a tray ceiling, and two spacious walk-in closets. The en-suite bathroom offers a raised double vanity, a walk-in shower with a built-in bench seat, and a private water closet for added comfort and privacy. A beautiful wooden staircase with large windows brings in natural light as you ascend to the upper level, where you'll find a spacious loft—perfect for a playroom, home office, or bonus room. Two additional upstairs bedrooms offer ample closet space, ceiling fans with overhead lighting, and easy access to a full hall bathroom featuring a tub/shower combination, vanity, and a convenient linen closet. An unfinished third room upstairs is currently used for storage but offers excellent potential. With flooring and a fresh coat of paint, it can easily be transformed into a third bedroom, providing even more living space to suit your needs.
