Burlington Home of the Week: 3 Pinevale Avenue

Although not involved in the initial fabrication process, the future owners of this new construction colonial will reap the reward of its experienced builders. This property was skillfully designed to fulfill all the needs and preferences today's homeowners expect and desire, including an open floor plan, neutral settings, premium materials, detailed moldings and viable spaces for future expansion. Of course, its advantageous location on a lightly-traveled dead-end street on an oversized lot also appeal to potential homebuyers. That much available land is a rare commodity and a highly desired specification not typically satisfied in today's new construction real estate.

The 16 x 12 square foot kitchen and neighboring 22 x 18 square foot family will likely experience the most traffic within this home. Their popularity is influenced not only by their seamless exchange, but also with its enhancements of top-of-the-line cabinetry, granite surfaces (including a center island with seating) and Energy Star stainless steel appliances and a fireplace in the family room, a feature that always lures and retains the entire family. The 15 x 12 square foot dining area provides a formal setting for holidays and special events, however, with this home's welcoming and warm design, any occasion or meal can and should be enjoyed in this area.

The second level hosts a luxurious 19 x 18 square foot master bedroom with a walk-in closet and a private bath as well as three additional spacious bedrooms at 12 x 11, 14 x 12 and 22 x 17 square feet, a full family bath and a convenient laundry area. While currently unfinished, the walk-up attic and walk-out basement both boast elevated ceilings and generous storage space and reflect dimensions the full footprint of the home and can easily be converted into additional living areas.

A raised deck provides a spectacular view of the private, wooded rear landscape and the surrounding grounds offer more than enough room for recreational and leisure activities. On those days when residents must leave this secure and comfortable haven, public transportation is conveniently nearby as well as parks, retailing and restaurants. With the benefits of this home, however, coming home will always be a welcoming event.
