Just a short stroll from the newly reimagined Chesterbrook Shopping Center, this exceptional home effortlessly blends timeless character with modern sophistication.
Originally crafted and creatively renovated by the renowned designer Morris Day, this home is a true testament to thoughtful design and quality craftsmanship. The residence is situated on a beautifully landscaped and fully fenced 0.36-acre lot, offering both privacy and a peaceful retreat just minutes from urban conveniences.
Approaching the home, you’re greeted by a charming entry with just three easy steps leading to the front door. Inside, a spacious foyer sets the tone for the open, elegant layout. The foyer flows seamlessly into a formal dining room, perfect for entertaining, complete with a wood-burning fireplace that adds warmth and ambiance.
One of the showstopping features of this home is the cathedral-ceilinged living room, highlighted by stunning stained-glass windows that flood the space with natural light. A second wood-burning fireplace serves as the focal point of the room, flanked by French doors that open to a private backyard oasis. Step outside and enjoy the heated in-ground pool, ideal for both relaxation and recreation, surrounded by mature landscaping that provides beauty and seclusion year-round.
The updated kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring a large center island, modern appliances, and direct access to the rear deck overlooking the pool—perfect for al fresco dining or weekend gatherings.
The main level includes two generously sized bedrooms and a full hall bath, ideal for guests, family, or a home office setup.
Upstairs, you'll find a spacious and serene primary suite, featuring his-and-her closets and a brand-new, luxuriously renovated en-suite bathroom with modern fixtures and elegant finishes. Two additional bedrooms share an updated hall bath on this level, along with a stunning landing area that offers built-in bookshelves and an expansive open space—perfect for a library, reading nook, or home office.
The walk-out lower level adds even more versatile living space with a full bathroom, abundant storage, and access to a private patio—ideal for multi-generational living, a recreation room, gym, or future guest suite.
Additional highlights include a private driveway with space for four cars, mature trees, and a fully fenced yard offering safety for children and pets alike.
