7204 Bucknell Dr

A charming mid-century colonial home with original woodwork, sitting on a sprawling, lush and well-manicured ¼ acre lot, cozily nestled amongst soaring mature trees on a quiet street in the University Hills neighborhood. This impeccably well-taken care of home was lived in, and very loved, by the same one owner since being purchased in 1970. The expansive two-story home is 2,185 sq. ft. and has a great floor plan that consists of four very spacious bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and one half bathroom. Enter the colorful home and note the natural light pouring in from the large windows that are in every room. Walk through the extra roomy living area on your way to the open and bright kitchen that has a window with a view of the backyard, and also overlooks the breakfast nook and adjoining dining area -- an ideal layout when hosting and entertaining friends and family! All four bedrooms are located upstairs nicely spaced out, putting great use to every square foot on the second floor. The large primary bedroom has an en suite bathroom, ceiling fan, and 2 huge walk-in closets. The secondary bedrooms each have big walk-in closets all with built-in shelves and/or drawers for storage, ceiling fans, and windows to let in sunshine. The shared full bath is a great size with a big high window and cabinet space for storage. Step out back to the beautiful and private, fenced backyard that comes with a large shed to use for extra storage. Spend time relaxing or entertaining guests on the sprawling patio, surrounded by mature trees that tower over providing shade and a peaceful retreat from the bustling city.
