In a peaceful neighborhood in Clinton, this predominantly brick house with white siding and brown wood shake is perfect for a family with an appreciation for the outdoors.

With no defined property line visible, you can see acres and acres of woods out back.

There's a porch, driveway and generous front yard space also.

The house features an equipped security system, a generous laundry room with shelving, windows in all bathrooms and ceiling fans in each bedroom.

The over-sized two-car garage has shelving and racks to hang bikes or other items.

On the main floor is a foyer with laminate tile and a double folding-door closet, kitchen and living room.

The kitchen features a bay window, dark brown cabinets, white appliances and countertops and butterscotch-colored tiles that resemble bricks on some walls.

The large living room has wide open windows that offer a nice backyard view, a free-standing wood-burning fireplace with a bricked wall behind it and light carpet

On the top floor are three bedrooms, including a roomy master bedroom with a sliding glass door that leads to a private deck overlooking the back yard. The master bath includes a tub with glass door and has a European feel with a bidet next to the toilet.

The hallway bathroom is light colored with tan accents and also has a tub with glass door. The other bedrooms are roomy and one, with its built-in shelving, could double as an office.

A standout feature is the hallway whole-house fan. Situated in the ceiling, with a flip of a switch the vented fan quickly draws out such things as hot air in the summer or a burning scent from food cooked on the stove.

Down one level from the main floor is a recreational room, which could be used as a den. It features ceramic tile in soft shades of gray, beige and blue, wood paneling walls and also has a sliding glass door that leads to a spacious side deck.

With the exception of the tub, all fixtures in the hall bathroom have been replaced, including the white tiled floors with gray accents, tub door, sink, toilet and mirrored medicine cabinet.

The sizeable fourth bedroom has red walls, recessed lighting and plenty of closet space with six mirrored double-door closets.

The carpeted basement offers plenty of room and has a fireplace with mantel, two closets for storage and a door leading to the backyard.
