Property Description
Welcome to this charming French country cottage, where character, craftsmanship, and comfort come together beautifully. From the moment you enter, the home's warm cottage feel is immediately evident, highlighted by beautiful wood beams in the great room and one of two fireplaces that create an inviting atmosphere for everyday living and entertaining.
The main living areas and basement feature luxury vinyl plank flooring, while select Pella windows, including some replacements, bring in natural light throughout the home. Designed with both style and function in mind, the home also includes select Emtek faucets, doorknobs, and fixtures, a hardwired security system, gas heat for the winter months, and a multi-zone HVAC system for added comfort.
The kitchen is well appointed with a GE double oven, induction cooktop, stainless steel refrigerator, trash compactor, and a pantry with additional storage. Thoughtful cabinetry details include pull-out shelving, wood dividers and spice racks, a lazy Susan, and two appliance garages, creating a highly functional space that supports both daily use and entertaining. Nearby, the formal dining room, great room, and eat-in kitchen offer multiple gathering spaces for hosting family and friends.
With five bedrooms, the floor plan offers flexibility across three levels. The main-level primary suite includes a fully remodeled bathroom by Sarah Fink Designs, featuring a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and a closet by Better Living Store. Upstairs, luxury vinyl plank flooring in a herringbone pattern complements two bedrooms, a bathroom, and an office or bonus room.
The finished basement expands the home's living and guest space with two bedrooms, including one with its own remodeled bathroom, plus an additional small area ideal for a playroom or office. This level also offers an exercise room or bedroom near the laundry and bath, generous storage, a built-in bar, a newer full-size stainless steel refrigerator, two gas water heaters, a water filtration system, a central vacuum system, and a new Armstrong drop ceiling designed to resemble Haven wood planks, continuing the home's cottage character.
Convenient laundry options are available on both the main and lower levels, with a new washer and dryer located just off the garage upstairs and a stacked washer and dryer in the basement bathroom.
The outdoor spaces are equally impressive, framed by mature oak trees, detailed landscaping, and natural stone paths that lead from the side gate through the grounds. Stone pavers continue to a beautifully landscaped backyard featuring a 13 x 30 saltwater pool, gas fire pit area, and outdoor kitchen equipped with a Blaze grill, refrigerator, stove burners, and more. A covered deck off the main floor provides a scenic view of the yard, while the fenced backyard, completed by MW Fencing, includes lockable gates for added peace of mind.
Completing the property is a two-car detached garage with an upstairs area for storage or flexible use. With its distinctive cottage style, thoughtful updates, generous living spaces, and resort-like outdoor amenities, 3622 Arbor Road offers a rare blend of charm, comfort, and everyday livability in Joplin.
