Beautifully updated home in the sought-after Bakers Ferry neighborhood of Martinez! Situated on approximately one-third of an acre, this property offers established landscaping (updated irrigation system) and inviting living spaces - both inside and out - thoughtfully designed for family enjoyment and relaxed entertaining. Inside is a formal, open concept living room/dining room with wainscoting and newly refinished wood flooring. A large great room with charming balcony and wood floors offers sufficient area for modular couches and game days; there is a fireplace with gas logs, but they are not hooked up. A spacious, newly tiled eat-in kitchen provides opportunity for seamless entertaining, featuring a large granite prep/serving area, extensive pantry, and an impressive array of high-end, stainless appliances (Miele oven, GE Profile combination, LG French door refrigerator, Wolf gas cooktop, and new dishwasher). Outside is truly a place to relax and enjoy family and friends in a private, fenced back yard. An enlarged, lighted Trex deck overlooks an in-ground, saltwater pool with concrete decking and liner replaced approximately two years ago. There's even a small patio with fire pit, another place to savor a cool lemonade or a toasty hot chocolate. For the convenience of swimmers, the downstairs tiled full bath is divided into a shower and laundry area, separated from the commode and sink. A tankless water heater assures there is sufficient water for hot showers! Electrical hookup for a possible hot tub and gas hookup for a grille are already in place. Upstairs are four bedrooms, including an owner's suite with wood floors, tray ceiling, sitting area, plantation shutters, and walk-in closet; additional under-eave storage is cleverly concealed behind movable custom bookshelves. The owner's bath includes dual sinks, jetted tub, tiled shower, and private water closet. The hall bathroom has been updated with granite and tile. Additional improvements include upgraded carpeting and lighting. The roof is approximately two years old. A side-entry two-car garage with cabinetry and sink completes the property. Convenient Columbia County location with access to I-20, schools, shopping, dining, and Augusta's medical community.
