8240 RHINE WAY, CENTERVILLE

Bonus room above the garage has versatility

Contributing writer

Pocket doors open the space between the living room and family room, and a bonus room above the garage adds to the floor plan versatility of this two-story Centerville home.

Listed for $350,000 by Sibcy Cline Realtors, the brick home at 8240 Rhine Way has about 3,330 square feet of living space plus a screen-enclosed porch. The house sits on about a half-acre lot with mature trees and paver-brick patios.

Formal entry opens into a raised entry with hardwood flooring and steps that lead to the upstairs and a couple steps down to the main level of the house. The wood flooring continues down the hallway.

To the left is the formal living room with a bay bump-out and pocket doors that open to the family room. To the right is the formal dining room with chair rail and crown molding. Double doors open from the dining room into the kitchen.

At the center of the main level is the kitchen. An island has a granite countertop, cooktop, seating for two and storage. Cabinetry includes an appliance garage, planning desk and wet bar. A Travertine backsplash fills the wall space between the cabinetry and countertops. There is also under cabinet lighting. Ceramic-tile flooring fills the kitchen and the breakfast room where patio doors open out into a screen-enclosed porch. The porch has terracotta flooring, a ceiling paddle fan and electric for a hot tub. A door opens out to a concrete patio with an extended paver-brick patio.

A custom wood mantel surrounds a gas, brick fireplace of the family room. Pocket doors open to the front living room, and patio doors open out to the back yard.

Carpet running accents the formal staircase from the entry way, and the staircase leads to a catwalk hallway. The main bedroom is located off the catwalk and has a sitting area and patio doors that open to a balcony wood deck. Double doors open to a private bathroom, which has a whirlpool tub within the bay bump-out window, a double sink vanity, a walk-in closet and a walk-in shower with glass doors.

A pocket door off the bedroom opens into a second bedroom or office area. This room has a closet and second entrance from the hallway. There are two more bedrooms and a full bathroom.

A staircase from the kitchen leads up to a bonus room, which has dormer window nooks, a closet and access to the front of the house through a bedroom.

There is a side-entry, two-car garage. Updates have been made to the roof, the dual heating and cooling systems and the garage door.
