Starting with the flooring, this brick ranch has had some recent updates.
Located along a private drive within the Yankee Trace Golf Club along the 18th fairway, the brick home at 1372 Courtyard Place has about 2,880 square feet of living space and is listed for $499,900 by Bechtel Realtors.
About five years ago the flooring was replaced with maple hardwood that fills the great room, dining room, hallway and three bedrooms. Cabinetry within the main bathroom and the kitchen was refinished, and quartz countertops were added just over two years ago. A stamped concrete patio was added to the back of the house and is covered with a cedar pergola and has a propane fire pit.
Formal entry opens into an open-concept floor plan with the great room, dining room and foyer all creating a versatile living space. Walls of windows along the back of the house overlook the patio, gardens and fairway. Tucked into one corner of the great room is a gas fireplace with wood mantel surround, and another wall as a built-in media center.
A peninsula, two-level counter wraps around the kitchen and creates breakfast bar seating for up to six. The lower-level quartz counter has a double sink and continues around the kitchen for additional work space. There is a double-door pantry closet and a gas five-burner cooktop.
A subway-tile backsplash accents the wall space, and the countertops extend over a wine cooler. Ceramic-tile flooring fills the kitchen and the adjoining breakfast room, which has a door that opens into the screen-enclosed porch. The porch has outdoor carpeting, ceiling paddle fan and gas hook-ups for grills or fireplace. A door opens from the porch to the patio, which has a stone, propane fire pit.
Back inside, off the foyer is the entrance to the main bedroom, which has a bay bump-out design and a tray ceiling. The main bathroom has a refinished double-sink vanity, a walk-in ceramic-tile shower with glass doors, a whirlpool tub below a window, a toilet room and a walk-in closet with organizers.
A hallway from the dining area branches to the bedroom wing where there are two bedrooms and a full bathroom. The other branch leads to the entrance to the three-car garage and a laundry room with folding counter.
A hidden staircase leads up to a bonus room above the garage. The bonus room has two skylights, angled ceiling treatment and plush carpeting. This space could be a recreation room or a fourth bedroom.
