E-mail this article \ Print this article


A center gable and a deep front porch lend country charm to this home in Mount Airy's Harvest Ridge Community. Set on more than one-quarter acre , the home has three finished levels with five bedrooms plus an inground pool for outdoor entertaining.

From the front porch, the entry opens to a foyer flanked by the living and dining rooms. Hardwoods line the floors in these spaces.

The dining room, to the right, has French doors and a wrought-iron chandelier.

Straight ahead, a large family room has Berber carpet and a stone fireplace with gas logs. The space opens to the combination kitchen/breakfast room beyond. Off of the family room, a short hallway leads to a large, carpeted study or possible sixth bedroom. A full bath with shower is also in this hallway.

The breakfast area has vinyl flooring and a bay window overlooking the pool. The center-island kitchen features maple cabinetry and a walk-in pantry. A laundry/utility room connects the kitchen to a two-car garage.

On the upper level, a carpeted hallway leads to the master suite.

The master bedroom features a cathedral ceiling, neutral carpet, his/hers walk-in closets, and a large sitting area with bay windows overlooking the pool. The master bath has dual cherry vanities, a large soaking tub and a separate shower.

Three additional bedrooms, all carpeted, also are on this level, as is a hall bath with cherry cabinetry and a combination tub/ shower.

The walkout lower level features a large rec room with Berber carpet; a full bath with combination tub/shower; a fifth bedroom with carpet; and an additional home-office space, also finished with carpet. There also is a large storage/utility room with a second set of washer/dryer hookups.

French doors from the rec room open onto a landscaped concrete patio. Flagstones edge the Pebble-Tek finished inground pool. From the pool, the yard drops down to a wooded lower terrace with a tree house. Oak trees across the rear of the property provide privacy, while a 6-foot decorative, wrought-iron fence encircles the entire backyard.
