Description

Welcome to one of the most coveted lots in Mershon Chase at Brandon Farms! This spacious home truly has it all. A charming paver stone path leads you into a gracious grand foyer, flanked by a sunlit living room and an elegant formal dining room, both featuring beautiful wood floors and accent moldings. An inviting art nook draws you further inside, revealing a large central family room with a soaring two-story ceiling, a cozy gas fireplace, and tall windows that showcase stunning views of the expansive yard. The family room flows seamlessly into the bright breakfast room and leads you to the heart of the home: a custom kitchen equipped with a center island bar, luxurious granite countertops, upgraded appliances, abundant cabinetry, and a convenient pantry. But there’s even more! The main level also features a functional mudroom, a secluded powder room, and a versatile bonus room that can easily serve as a home office or an additional bedroom. The clever dual staircase guides you to a hall bridge bathed in natural light, which connects to generously sized bedrooms with crown moldings, built-in shelving, and ample closet space. The hall bath is well-appointed, and the expansive primary suite boasts a tray ceiling, convenient laundry, spacious wardrobes, and a custom en-suite bath featuring impressive cabinet storage and a relaxing whirlpool alcove. The possibilities continue with a huge finished basement offering wide-open spaces, along with a sizable storage or workshop area. Step outside to the backyard oasis, perfect for summer entertainment! Enjoy gatherings on the patio, lounging by the pool, hosting game days on the lawn, or simply savoring the tranquility of the seemingly endless green views. Additional highlights include recessed lighting, closets everywhere, an attached two-car garage, beautiful landscaping and hardscaping, as well as the energy efficiency of debt-free solar panels and electric heat-pump pool heater. This home is the complete package! Ideally located near Twin Pines Park, The Lawrence Hopewell Trail, local shops and eateries, I95 and Route 206.
