Set on more than one acre and screened by mature trees, this split-level colonial just north of Mount Airy features a newly updated kitchen and a master suite that occupies the entire top floor.

From the front porch, the entry opens to a large eat-in kitchen arranged around a center island. The space has ceramic tile, maple cabinetry and granite tops. A wood-burning fireplace graces the dining area, where French doors access a rear concrete patio. There also is a separate breakfast area with an east-facing bay window.

To the left of the kitchen, the sunken living room has a ceramic-tile floor as well as crown molding, wainscoting and a wall of casement windows overlooking the front yard.

The laundry room, with ceramic tile and a utility sink, is off the kitchen, as is a mudroom with a built-in bench and storage cabinetry.

From the mudroom, a door leads out to the rear patio and a detached, two-car garage. There also is a separate storage building on the property.

To the right of the kitchen, a short flight of stairs leads up to a split level with four carpeted bedrooms, one including an adjacent bath with ceramic tile and a shower. Another full bath with ceramic tile, and a linen closet also are on this level, as are spiral stairs leading down to a rec room on the lower level.

The walkout lower level includes a Berber-carpeted family room that features a wood-burning fireplace, built-ins and chair rail. A powder room with a pedestal sink and ceramic tile, a craft room or office, and a large game room with laminate floors also are on this level.
