Four bedrooms and a spacious formal area are part of the living space on the main level of this bi-level home located in the Saville Estates of Riverside.

Listed for $163,500 by Domescik & Associates Inc., the brick-and-vinyl home at 5948 Helenwood Drive has about 2,850 square feet of living space within the two levels. The house sits on a quarter-acre property with a fenced back yard that has a mature tree line for added privacy. A wood deck has built-in bench seats and steps that lead down to the yard.

Leaded-glass front door with matching sidelights opens into an entrance foyer with tile flooring and oak spindled staircases that lead to the upper and lower levels. There is a bi-fold door closet.

The lower level has an L-shaped family room with a brick, wood-burning fireplace. The fireplace has a raised hearth and stone shelves. Windows provide plenty of natural light, and a door opens into a walk-in storage closet.

A hallway from the family room leads to another storage closet and ends at the entrance to the two-car attached garage. The hallway branch leads to a bonus room, which could be a fifth bedroom as it has a closet and a daylight window. The laundry room with a wash tub and a half bathroom are also located on this level.

The main level of the home has a living room and dining room combination just off the landing from the stairwell. Oak spindles accent part of the living room. The dining room has a chandelier, a side window and access to the kitchen, which is also accessible from the central hallway.

The kitchen has been extended with a bay bump-out breakfast room with large windows and a glass door that opens out to a balcony deck. The main part of the kitchen is L-shaped in design with cherry cabinets and solid-surface countertops. The kitchen comes equipped with a dishwasher. There is wood laminate flooring within the kitchen and breakfast room and ceiling paddle fans above.

The central hallway leads to four bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The main bedroom is at the back of the house and has a private full bath with step-in shower, single-sink vanity and a laundry chute. The guest bath has a fiberglass tub/shower and single-sink vanity.

All four bedrooms have bi-fold double-door closets and ceiling paddle fans.
