About this House
Graceful design, generous living spaces, and exceptional outdoor amenities come together in this beautifully appointed custom home, ideally positioned on a rare double lot in one of the area’s most sought-after neighborhoods. From the moment you enter, the home makes an impression with its open, airy feel and refined architectural details. The main living area is highlighted by dramatic vaulted ceilings, warm hardwood flooring, detailed trim work, and a two-sided gas fireplace that creates a seamless connection between the great room and kitchen. The kitchen is both sophisticated and highly functional, offering rich maple cabinetry, granite surfaces, a large center island with seating, and a full complement of built-in appliances, including double ovens, microwave, cooktop, and refrigerator. An adjoining breakfast area provides a comfortable setting for everyday dining, while the separate formal dining room is perfectly suited for holidays, dinner parties, and special gatherings. The main level also features a conveniently located laundry room and an impressive primary suite designed as a private retreat. Vaulted ceilings and an electric fireplace add warmth and character to the bedroom, while the private bath includes dual granite vanities, a walk-in shower, garden tub, and two spacious walk-in closets. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms each offer walk-in closets and share a well-designed Jack-and-Jill bath. The third level provides another spacious bedroom with its own half bath and walk-in closet, creating a wonderfully flexible area that could easily serve as guest accommodations, a home office, fitness room, media space, or private retreat. The outdoor living spaces are equally impressive. The beautifully maintained backyard centers around an 18x32 in-ground swimming pool and includes a gazebo for shaded relaxation and an expansive newer deck with plenty of room for entertaining, grilling, or enjoying quiet evenings outdoors. A swing set adds another recreational feature to the grounds. A large concrete driveway leads to the attached three- car garage while providing excellent additional parking for guests, recreational vehicles, boats, trailers, or campers. With its spacious layout, custom features, multiple entertaining areas, and exceptional double-lot setting, this distinctive property offers a combination of style, comfort, and versatility that is difficult to find.
