Across the back of the house is the kitchen with generous cabinetry and a wonderful family room with a stone fireplace perfect for cozy evenings. The ground floor boasts a large primary suite (which overlooks the private backyard) + two additional bedrooms + a shared bath. The second story (added1988) boasts an additional (huge) primary suite + additional bed and bath. This well-maintained home is ready for a new owner to move in as-is or make it their own with cosmetic updating. First major remodel in 1974 increased the house to +/- 1945 sq/ft and added a detached two-car garage that offers many options for use. In 1988, the addition of the 2nd floor added +/- 1101 sq/ft/. The owners added a garage workshop in 1996 which is 12' x 18' = +/- 216 sq/ft (perfect for a home office / gym / man cave / she shed / workshop / studio). This Gillette's Regent Square home has a lovely, large, private backyard with fruit trees and fragrant roses. A large patio off the family room is perfect for BBQing and family gatherings.
