The tax record may say 1935, but this is far from your typical 1935 home. The original footprint represents just a small portion of the home you see today, thoughtfully renovated and expanded over the decades by its builder-owner to create a home designed for the way we live now. The spacious kitchen features a center island, abundant cabinetry, pantry and breakfast area, flowing easily into the dining room and inviting living spaces. A true standout is the impressive family room addition with vaulted ceiling, walls of windows, its own front entrance and access to the deck, creating flexible space for entertaining, relaxing, a game room, studio or whatever fits your lifestyle. The main level offers two bedrooms and an updated full bath, while upstairs, the private primary suite features a walk-in closet and spa-like bath with freestanding soaking tub and beautifully tiled glass shower. A dedicated lower-level office provides quiet work-from-home space. Outside, enjoy multiple areas to gather and unwind, including a paver patio and a fenced-in retreat with above-ground pool, spacious deck and pool clubhouse. Located in Rockfall, you're close to Lake Beseck, Powder Ridge, Lyman Orchards and Wadsworth Falls, with convenient access to shopping and highways. 1935 may be where the story started, but this home has evolved beautifully for today's lifestyle.
