Located in east Fayetteville, 5641 E. Sombreado Road lies off the beaten path while maintaining easy access to city conveniences.
Listed by Matt Hutchins of Weichert Realtors- The Griffin Company for $314,496, the 3,035-square-foot home in Horsebend Estates, a Buffington Homes of Arkansas community, has four bedrooms, two full baths, a half bath and multiple living spaces. Open house will be 1-6 p.m. today.
Under the covered porch, the front door is surrounded by glass panes and opens into a foyer, which introduces the hand-scraped hardwood floors that continue into the dining and family rooms. To the left, a wide archway leads into the formal dining room. Extended, cased-out windows visually open the space to the outside.
Straight ahead from the foyer lies the spa- cious family room, which includes a striking wall of windows that emphasize the 20-foot ceilings. A gas-log fireplace is surrounded by stone tile and flanked by alcoves that can be filled with media cabinets or bookcases. An inset arch above the wood mantel is a perfect display space.
Under a wide arch, a raised dining bar serves as a pass-through and merges the living and kitchen spaces. A work island with cabinets and open shelving stands under pendant lighting at the center of the kitchen.
Other distinguishing details are dulce on maple cus- tom cabinets and 18-inch tiles laid in a brick pattern. Other features include a pantry, an inset sink, stainless steel appliances and gran- ite countertops. Off the kitchen, the breakfast nook offers multiple windows and access to the patio.
Down a long hall from the family room is the master suite, where the airy bedroom boasts a tray ceiling and a wide bay window that could serve as a sitting area. In the master bath, the 5-foot jetted tub has an arched window with textured privacy glass on one end and a separate walk-in tiled shower with a built-in seat on the other. Other features include his- and-hers vanities with granite countertops, a private water closet and a large walk-in closet with built-in shelving and hanging rods.
A hardwood staircase with a carpet runner and iron railing leads from the foyer to the up- per level. At the top of the stairs, the landing becomes a large common space that can serve as a game room, media room or office. Three other bedrooms and a full bath with a double vanity round out the level.
Additional features include 10-foot ceilings throughout, thick crown molding and base- boards, blown-in cellulose insulation and vinyl double-pane windows. It also has a side-entry, two-car garage with a separate third bay.
