Here is a unique opportunity to own this lovely home nestled in a park-like setting within the highly desirable Countrylane Woods II community. This planned residential development has more protected open space and wooded areas than almost all of St. Louis County. The majority of Countrylane Woods II homes back to either woods or common ground. This location features Triple A Parkway Schools, outstanding parks, shopping, dining and the fabulous Manchester Aquatics Center. The nostalgic, veranda style front porch graciously welcomes visitors to this spacious, lovingly maintained 4 bedroom home. On the main level, a comfortable family room with an expansive custom bay window overlooks a private back yard oasis. Hardwood floors and a natural gas fireplace complete the ambiance of this relaxing space. There is plenty of space for entertaining family and friends in the combined living and dining rooms. Off the kitchen, enjoy the spectacular view from one of the two large, maintenance free vinyl decks. Especially noteworthy is the gorgeous Sassafras and Walnut paneling and moldings throughout the home preserved from our own St. Louis Cardinals' legend Branch Rickey's historic mansion. Upstairs are four bedrooms including a generously sized primary with a walk in closet, makeup area and recently updated ensuite bathroom. The lower level with its cozy pub-like atmosphere and walkout covered vinyl deck, is perfect for entertaining or special movie nights! Professionally finished office space is ideal for the entrepreneur or home-based business. The stunningly landscaped terraced backyard, accented with perennial Ostrich Ferns, Hostas, and Lungworts, is the ultimate place for parties and gatherings with beautiful spots for dining, a waterfall spilling into a koi pond and peaceful reflection areas. HVAC is less than 3 years old and new roof is being installed next week! Amenities offered by Countrylane Woods II include two swimming pools, clubhouse, playground, pickleball / tennis courts, picnic area, and common grounds. Hurry, this amazing home will not last!
