15 Merlins Lane features living space with great flow, a stunning setting, and a heated in-ground pool perfectly situated on the level lot. The gracious cherry tree-lined driveway leads to the attached three-car garage and brick walkway to the covered front porch entry. The double-story foyer and dual-wing staircase make a fantastic first impression and open up to the living space. A spacious kitchen with granite counters, center island, and a dining area with a bow window overlooking the beautiful backyard is open to the family room with picture-frame molding and a stone fireplace. A formal living room with french doors could alternatively serve as a dining room if desired. An office off the foyer is equipped with a gorgeous built-in work area including two walls of shelving, and pocket doors provide privacy when needed. Upstairs is the primary suite with a fireplace, walk-in closest and en-suite bath with double sinks. There are three more bedrooms on this level, one with an en-suite bath and the other two sharing a Jack and Jill bath. The third level offers a bonus room with built-ins, a fourth full bath, and access to the floored attic storage space. The outdoor space is a dream, including the charming covered front porch, back deck, and fully-fenced and heated in-ground pool, all on a perfectly level lot. Great location in a sought-after neighborhood with easy access to town.
