Beautifully transformed two-story colonial in Pickerington's desirable Melrose subdivision. Standout curb appeal begins with an exterior coated in Sherwin-Williams Rain Refresh self-cleaning paint featuring Cotton Sheets, Worldly Gray, and Urbane Bronze, framed by handcrafted wood shutters and porch post wraps stained in rich October Brown. The grounds showcase professionally curated specimen plantings-including Paperbark Maple, Japanese Maple, Flame Thrower Redbud, Sweetbay Magnolia, Boxwoods, and Evergreens. Inside, an open floor plan features durable Sherwin-Williams SuperPaint in Agreeable Gray with clean trim, enhanced by designer accents in Sage Green, Pastoral Green, Midnight Blue, and Urbane Bronze. The main level begins in a sunlit front living room with a blue accent wall that flows into a private reading library lined with custom pine wrap-around display shelving. At the heart of the home, the chef's kitchen showcases stainless steel appliances, a dedicated chimney hood, custom open shelving, and a prep peninsula overlooking an expansive dining room. A heavy-timber sliding barn door reveals the dining focal point: a whitewashed brick fireplace flanked by illuminated sconces against an Urbane Bronze feature wall. A private executive office/den, pantry, half bathroom with backlit LED mirror, and dedicated laundry room with 2025 appliances complete the main floor. Upstairs features four generous bedrooms, and two full bathrooms. Highlighted by a primary suite with a dressing vanity and ensuite bath boasting a backlit LED mirror, matte black fixtures, and a walk-in glass shower. Outside, enjoy an elevated dining deck, custom fire pit lounge, maturing fruit trees (pear, plum, peach, sweet cherry, sour cherry), and two thornless blackberry bushes. Complete with a new roof (2024), premium RainSoft whole-home water filtration and softening system, active continuous radon mitigation, and Pickerington Schools.
