Tucked into the bottom of a quiet cul-de-sac in Rosemary Glen, this Kent home has the kind of presence that is hard to capture in a checklist. The two-story entry is flooded with natural light from an oversized skylight above the graceful curved staircase, creating an immediate sense of space and warmth. The main level offers formal living and dining rooms, oak hardwood floors, a private office and an open kitchen and family room that work equally well for everyday life and entertaining. Granite counters, abundant cabinetry and an island with seating anchor the kitchen, while the adjoining family room with brick fireplace opens to the expansive deck. Large windows throughout keep the home connected to the surrounding greenery and bring natural light into nearly every room. Upstairs, a flexible loft adds room for work, reading or play. The spacious primary suite features vaulted ceilings, a walk-in closet and five-piece bath, with two additional bedrooms and a full bath nearby. Outside, multiple deck levels create distinct places to dine, gather or unwind while overlooking a private, terraced backyard with mature trees, lawn, garden space and a storage shed. Backing to Rosemary Glen-owned greenspace, the nearly one-third-acre lot offers a sense of privacy that is increasingly difficult to find, while the location remains convenient to Kent shopping, dining, recreation and Highway 167.
