3555 Lake Bluff Drive Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in The Retreat neighborhood of Sherrills Ford, this ranch home sits on a .76-acre lot that's been cared for just as much outside as it has inside. Pull into the driveway, step onto the covered front porch, and you'll immediately notice the peaceful setting. Inside, the open floor plan has been updated with new luxury vinyl plank flooring, newer carpet, updated trim, baseboards, door casings, new lighting, and oil-rubbed bronze fixtures throughout. The living area flows into the kitchen, where you'll find a new butcher block countertop on the one side of the kitchen, a two-tier breakfast bar, plenty of cabinet storage, lots of prep space, and a dishwasher that's only about a year old. There's a good size dining area too. The split-bedroom layout offers privacy for the primary suite with a large walk-in closet and an ensuite bath featuring dual vanities and a garden tub. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath with shiplap detail make up the other end of the home. There's also a laundry room with built-in shelving. Between the front and the backyard, you'll see what makes this property special. Step out of the sliding doors to the deck overlooking a fenced area, sandbox, established garden, compost area, arbor with a grapevine and three blueberry bushes as well as a 10x16 storage shed. This home sits on a crawlspace that has been encapsulated too with DryPro transferrable warranty. Roof done in 2012. Lining the driveway are four apple trees, one peach tree, and one pear tree. Whether you enjoy gardening, entertaining, or simply spending time outdoors, there's plenty of space to make this home your own. The Retreat also offers community Lake Norman access with a boat ramp, recreation area, and walking trails. Convenient to Highway 16, shopping, dining, and everything Sherrills Ford has to offer in this growing area!
