The layout is eminently usable and makes the home feel even larger, with a kitchen, breakfast nook, formal dining room, and a tucked-away living room offering an abundance of spaces for family and entertaining. The four bedrooms on the upper level, including a generous primary suite with a jetted soaking tub, offer options for families or work-from-home folks with a variety of needs, while the two bonus rooms and family room downstairs offer space for guests, home offices, teenagers, or whoever needs a bit of space - or potential for an easy conversion to a 2BR apartment, with an existing bathroom and space to add a kitchen, and a separate entrance from the rest of the house.Updating has been thorough, including new Anderson windows on the front of the house and the front door. One garage bay has been converted to a home office; this was done in a fashion so as to be easily removable, should the third bay be needed in the future for vehicles (home office space not included in home square footage). There's a large deck outside, with spectacular views in summer and winter, and plenty of parking for vehicles and toys up to RV size. Minutes in either direction to downtown Palmer or Wasilla, and just 33 minutes to the JBER exit or 41 minutes to the first stoplight in Anchorage.Larger homes like this, in excellent shape and with a short commute - especially with the easy conversion to an in-home apartment downstairs - don't come available very often.
