69 Blakes Lane

Comfort is the hallmark of this lovely home: self-cleaning range and washer...maintenance-free front porch and back deck...instantly cozy gas fireplace...soft-close doors and drawers...set-and-forget-it thermostat. Natural light filters softly through mature trees to illuminate the spacious, semi-open kitchen, dining and relaxing areas, aglow with genuine hardwood floors. In the kitchen, warm oak cabinets reach the ceiling and stand at the most comfortable height beneath broad counters, a big microwave above the bells-and-whistles range, a double sink and quiet dishwasher. In the lounging area, notice the rich crown molding, the quartz surround on the fireplace, the gracious traditional mantel and space-wise TV niche. A vaulted ceiling graces the tranquil owner's suite, which overlooks the landscaped, fenced and gated back yard. Luxury vinyl planks underfoot here (and in the two bedrooms in the other wing) need minimal care. Linger in the huge, refreshing owner's shower, with its non-slip base and subway-tile walls. Opposite, a tiltable mirror hangs above a roomy, wide vanity with marble counter and multiple doors and drawers, set on solid surface tiles that don't show dirt. The full bath serving the second and third bedrooms features basket-weave patterned flooring and an enameled, cast-iron tub. Similar flooring supports the contemporary, pedestal-mounted washer and dryer, plus a spacious, wood wall cabinet. Up the softly carpeted stairway, a surprise! Two sunny bonus rooms perfect for a private retreat, a quiet office, even a playroom. Willow Creek is not a noisy hive but a small, serene neighborhood-yet convenient to the mountain towns and sights along Highway 515 and just east of Carter's Lake Marina. This easy-to-love home invites seekers of comfort and convenience.
