Welcome to a truly exceptional home set on one of the most beautiful lots in the neighborhood. Nestled on a spacious 3/4 acre homesite surrounded by mature landscaping and lush green lawn, this property offers an uncommon sense of privacy and openness thanks to the generous spacing between homes. The result is a peaceful setting in one of the area’s most desirable communities. A front porch invites you inside, where a dramatic two-story foyer makes an immediate impression with transom and sidelight windows that fill the space with natural light. Engineered hardwood flooring flows throughout the main living areas and sunroom, including wood stair treads. Prairie style windows add timeless architectural charm throughout the home. Designed with numerous upgrades during construction, the home features expanded living spaces, creating a noticeably larger kitchen, living room, primary suite, garage. To the right of the foyer, the elegant dining room showcases a tray ceiling, while to the left, French atrium doors open to a flex room with a coffered ceiling, ideal as an office, music room, sitting room, or library. The main living area is bright, open, and inviting with soaring vaulted ceilings, abundant windows, and a cozy gas fireplace with added tile surround. Open to the living room, the gourmet kitchen was designed to be the heart of the home. Recessed lighting, under cabinet lighting, and designer pendant fixtures create a warm atmosphere. The kitchen features 42” soft close cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, gas cooking, and two pantries. Unlike many homes in the neighborhood, this kitchen boasts an impressive 100x62" island with seating for six. A window above the sink frames peaceful backyard views. French doors lead into the sunroom, where multiple sliding windows invite in natural breezes and overlook the spectacular landscaped backyard. Outside, a stunning two-tier hardscaped patio creates the perfect setting for outdoor dining, entertaining, or simply relaxing while enjoying the tranquil tree lined backdrop. Toward the rear of the property, beyond a gentle slope, you will find a fire pit gathering area. Privately situated off the kitchen, the spacious primary suite offers a relaxing retreat with decorative wainscoting, a large walk-in closet, and a linen closet. The luxurious en suite bath features a dual vanity and a wide tiled shower with frameless glass door. Throughout the home, closets are outfitted with solid wood shelving versus standard wire racks. The main level also includes a powder room and an upgraded laundry room with custom cabinetry.
