Property description
Discover the timeless charm and modern luxury of this 2.6-acre gated estate, nestled in the heart of the prestigious Historic Hope Valley Country Club neighborhood. A beautifully manicured circular drive sets the tone as you arrive, welcoming residents and guests into a private sanctuary that feels worlds away from the everyday hustle. This distinctive 4-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom custom home captivates with its extraordinary architectural detail—gothic arches, exposed wood beams, a refined, tucked-away office, and a sunroom bathed in natural light, all echoing the classic character of Hope Valley's 1920s-era homes. Thoughtful updates throughout bring modern ease to timeless style, including a fully renovated chef's kitchen, a luxurious primary bath with heated floors, an expansive primary closet, a three-level elevator, a relaxing basement sauna, and more. Spanning over 4,400 square feet, the home also offers incredible potential for expansion. Finishing the walk-up attic and already partially finished basement—complete with a finished full bathroom—could easily add two additional bedrooms and bathrooms, requiring no structural changes. This would increase the livable space to nearly 8,000 square feet, offering remarkable flexibility and value. Outdoors, the estate continues to impress. The flat, private lot offers abundant space for recreation and entertaining, framed by a serene walking trail with quiet sitting areas and a tranquil koi pond—perfect for peaceful reflection. Come experience the exceptional lifestyle waiting at 3203 Rugby. This is more than a home—it's a legacy.
