Some houses just have a good vibe, and 3805 Calhoun is one of them. It’s comfortable, interesting and a little unexpected. With five bedrooms, three bathrooms and 2,379 total finished square feet there’s far more space than you might guess from the curb. Step inside and bamboo floors lead you through the main level, where natural light and views of the tree-filled backyard give the living spaces an easy, relaxed feel. The home has been expanded and updated so now there’s 1,449-square-foot on the main level which includes a large kitchen island, dedicated laundry room, a primary bedroom with its own bath, a 3/4 bath and 2 additional bedrooms. Head downstairs and the house gets even more delightful. With almost 1000 finished square feet, the lower level adds a spacious great room, flex room, 2 more bedrooms, a third bathroom with additional laundry hookups, and ample storage space. And then there’s the bookshelf. It looks like a built-in bookcase, but pull the right book and the entire bookshelf opens to reveal a hidden room behind it. Finally, step outside. The large, tree-filled backyard is one of the best parts of the property, with mature trees, multiple decks, an above-ground pool and plenty of green space. There’s room for friends around the pool, dinner on the deck, dogs in the yard, a garden in the sunshine or a quiet chair under the trees.
