4-bedroom ranch has covered patio, deck, pool
Contributing Writer
Wainscoting accents the walls of the breakfast room and recycled wood from bowling alley lanes cover the countertops of the island, buffet and planning desk within the kitchen of this ranch home located in the Twin Towers neighborhood of Bath Twp.
Listed for $274,900 by RE/MAX HomeBase, the cedar-and-brick home at 4861 Appaloosa Trail has about 2,580 square feet of living space. The house sits on more than an acre property with a tree-lined back yard, covered concrete patio, above-ground swimming pool with wood deck surround, a storage shed and a two-car garage with bump-out for a workshop area.
Formal entry opens within a foyer with decorative tile flooring. To the left off the foyer is the bedroom wing while to the right are the formal living and dining room. Wood capped partial walls divide the two rooms but allow for a spacious open feel.
Straight back off the foyer is the family room with a stone wood-burning fireplace with a raised hearth and media connections above. The family room has a vaulted ceiling with a skylight and atrium doors open out to the covered patio and back yard.
Off the family room and accessible from the dining room is the eat-in kitchen, which was updated about five years ago. The kitchen has painted white cabinets with dark granite countertops and complementing hardware. An oversized single sink is below a window, and there is a pantry closet. Wainscoting accents the dining area, and along one wall is a buffet counter and planning desk. The island, buffet and planning desk tops are made from recycled bowling alley lane wood, creating a butcher-block effect. Updated wood flooring fills the kitchen and continues into the family room.
A small hallway off the breakfast room leads to a half bathroom, a utility room with laundry hook-ups and access to the two-car garage.
The bedroom wing had four bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The main bedroom is at the back of the house and has a vaulted ceiling with a skylight. The dressing area has a double-sink vanity, access to a walk-in closet and the separate room with a shower and toilet.
The guest bath has a tub/shower and single-sink vanity.
Other features to the house include wood-trim windows, a walk-in guest closet near the front door, central air condition and heat pump and dimensional roof shingles.
