This totally updated home in the historic Heathwood neighborhood is a true showplace – with welcoming charm and plenty of space to spread out. The 4 BR, 3.5 BA home in one of Columbia’s finest neighborhoods was built in 1944 but has recently been extensively renovated from its original size (2,500sqft) & added on to providing more than 4,000 square feet. The front entrance sets the tone, with a garden gate leading to dual curved staircases that meet at the front door. Step inside this graceful home and you’re greeted with an open feel, clean lines and stunning coffered ceilings. The heart of the home is the deluxe kitchen with quartz countertops, white custom cabinets and a grand island that offers plenty of seating and storage space along with a pop of color. The kitchen is open to a sun-filled gathering room. It’s the perfect spot to entertain friends or come together for a family dinner. The home’s main level also features formal living and dining rooms, along with a master bedroom suite. Two large additional bedrooms are on the second floor, while the lower level of the house features an in-law suite built to be handicapped accessible. There are two sets of staircases inside, while the large atrium and stairway has the space and capacity to later add an elevator. Outside, the neatly manicured yard is bounded by Winnsboro blue granite walls, while the backyard features a covered porch with ceiling fans, an ideal spot to relax at the end of the day.
