About this home
This thoughtfully designed floor plan easily accommodates an in-law suite, whether located upstairs with adjoining rooms or on the main level. Just let your imagination run and the possibilities are endless. In addition, the home features a fully finished walkout basement, offering exceptional flexibility. Welcome to this beautiful custom designed and built residence by Wilbur Smith, quietly nestled at the end of a cul-de-sac and backing to trees and wildlife in a peaceful neighborhood of approximately 18 homes. Opportunities to own a home in this exclusive community are rare, making this offering truly special.
Upon entering, you are immediately struck by the attention to detail evident throughout the home’s design and construction. The foyer opens to a spacious formal dining room featuring a cathedral ceiling, hardwood floors, and a dramatic floor-to-ceiling bay window. Beyond, the gourmet kitchen is equipped with everything one could desire, including a center island with cooktop and downdraft, double sink, custom cabinetry, and a separate serving area with bar sink for additional storage and functionality. A built-in desk area adds further convenience. The breakfast nook, surrounded by windows, offers lovely views of the private wooded backyard and patio.
The living room impresses with its soaring two-story ceiling, dual-sided fireplace, and custom built-in cabinetry designed to house entertainment equipment, with speakers wired throughout the first floor and patio. Elegant columns frame the upper level, adding architectural interest. Just down the hall, you’ll find a stylish half bath and a generously sized laundry room with built-ins, granite countertops, front-load washer and dryer, and even a concealed ironing board.
The primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a floor-to-ceiling fireplace, expansive window wall with sitting area, and a luxurious ensuite bath complete with heated floors, a large walk-in shower, a separate water closet, and an impressive walk-in closet tucked privately away. Ascending the turned staircase to the upper level, a bridge leads to a spacious guest suite with private bath and walk-in closet. Nearby is a large home office and a bright, oversized playroom—every childhood dream—which may also serve as an additional bedroom, or combined with the connecting bedroom and bath to make an in-law-suite on the second floor. The hallway continues to another bedroom showcasing custom woodwork, decorative moldings, and a charming window seat, as well as an additional bedroom on this level.
The finished basement provides versatile spaces for exercise, hobbies, and even a mirrored dance studio. Entertaining is effortless in this open, flowing layout. Step outside onto the private patio veranda and take in the tranquility of the setting. This expansive hardscape features a built-in grill and ample room for gatherings, from lively celebrations to intimate dinners. Relaxation and serenity await just beyond your door.
The architectural roof has been recently replaced. Don’t miss the opportunity to own this distinctive home in an equally distinctive setting. Your storybook home awaits
