About this House
Welcome to 261 Wiggins Mill Road, where exceptional craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and meticulous care come together to create a truly remarkable home. From the moment you arrive, the beautiful stonework, mature landscaping, and inviting curb appeal hint at the quality and attention to detail found throughout. Step inside to discover a light-filled interior where soaring vaulted ceilings, elegant millwork, and expansive windows create an open, airy atmosphere. Designed with both everyday comfort and effortless entertaining in mind, the flexible floor plan offers the ease of primarily one-level living while providing spaces that can easily adapt as your needs change. Whether you're looking for additional first-floor bedrooms, a private home office, study, den, fitness room, or hobby space, this thoughtfully designed home offers exceptional versatility without sacrificing flow or functionality. Generous storage throughout ensures everything has its place, making daily living both organized and convenient. The spacious primary suite serves as a private retreat, offering generous closet space and a beautifully appointed en-suite bath featuring a soaking tub, double vanity with an integrated makeup area, and an oversized zero-entry shower designed for both comfort and style. Upstairs, a private guest retreat—perfect as a princess suite, au pair suite, or multigenerational living space—includes its own living area, full bath, and separate HVAC system, providing both comfort and independence for family or overnight guests. The heart of the home extends seamlessly outdoors, where a massive screened porch and expansive rear decking, including a trellis-covered entertaining area, create inviting spaces to enjoy your morning coffee, host family gatherings, or simply unwind while overlooking the peaceful surroundings. The full basement, complete with egress, plumbing rough-in, and abundant storage, offers exceptional flexibility with endless opportunities to create additional living space, a recreation room, home gym, workshop, or whatever best suits your lifestyle. Car enthusiasts, hobbyists, and anyone needing extra workspace will appreciate not only the attached two-car garage but also the impressive 22' × 30' detached workshop/garage with water and electric. Both the home and detached garage are pre-wired for a generator, providing added peace of mind and convenience. From its abundant natural light and exceptional storage to its flexible floor plan, timeless finishes, and effortless indoor-outdoor living, every detail of this meticulously maintained home reflects pride of ownership. Offering comfort, versatility, and room to grow, 261 Wiggins Mill Road is more than a beautiful home—it's a place designed to fit the way you live today and for years to come.
