About this home
Welcome to Encore at Briar Chapel, a vibrant 55+ community where lifestyle and comfort come together. Enjoy access to resort-style amenities including pools, a water park, tennis courts, scenic parks, and even a Bark Park--all just moments from your front door.
This thoughtfully designed single-story home offers two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a flexible study, blending elegance with everyday functionality. Built with aging-in-place in mind, features such as flat entries, 36'' doorways, and a spacious walk-in shower provide both comfort and accessibility.
Step inside to discover an open, light-filled floor plan with soaring ceilings and seamless flow. Just off the entry, you'll find a private secondary bedroom and full bath, a coat closet, garage access, and a versatile study--highlighted by a stunning reclaimed 19th-century stained-glass window--perfect for a home office, library, or creative space. Prefer an additional enclosed bedroom? The seller is willing to convert the study into a fully private third bedroom by adding a door and enclosing the space.
The heart of the home is the expansive great room, where the kitchen, dining, and living areas connect effortlessly. The kitchen features a large island, granite countertops, gas range, stainless steel appliances, soft-close cabinetry, and a generous pantry--ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. A wall of windows in the dining area fills the space with natural light, while built-in cabinetry adds both storage and style.
Relax in the inviting living room with a gas log fireplace, or step outside to the covered back porch--complete with remote-controlled screening capability and pre-wiring for a hot tub--creating a true indoor-outdoor living experience. The backyard offers a rare sense of privacy, backing to a natural area rather than neighboring homes--creating a peaceful, scenic setting.
Toward the rear of the home, the private owner's suite offers a true retreat with abundant natural light, a spacious walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired en suite bath featuring dual vanities, ample storage, a separate water closet, and a beautifully tiled walk-in shower.
Additional highlights include a well-appointed utility room with built-in workspace for added convenience.
Notably, this home is priced at approximately $292 per square foot--well below recent neighborhood sales ranging from $337 to $347 per square foot--presenting a compelling opportunity for buyers seeking both value and lifestyle in Encore at Briar Chapel.
