Property Description
Beautifully maintained home set in a peaceful, wooded setting, featuring a striking exterior, mature landscaping, hardwood floors, elegant crown molding, spacious living areas, an updated spa-like primary bath, and inviting indoor-outdoor entertaining spaces. A warm, refined home offering privacy, comfort, and timeless appeal. This beautifully maintained home combines classic architectural details with a warm, comfortable interior and a peaceful wooded setting. The exterior immediately makes a strong impression, with a stately gabled roofline, attractive gray siding, brick accents, stone detailing around the front entry, and mature professional landscaping. A gently curving walkway leads through the manicured lawn to the inviting front door, while the surrounding mature trees provide privacy and a serene backdrop. Inside, the home feels bright, spacious, and thoughtfully designed. The main living area features rich hardwood flooring, crisp neutral walls, extensive crown molding, and an impressive tray-style ceiling that adds architectural character. A striking fireplace with a dark mantel and tile surround serves as the focal point of the room, while large windows bring in abundant natural light. The spacious seating arrangement creates an ideal setting for both everyday living and entertaining, with a comfortable, sophisticated aesthetic throughout. The primary bedroom continues the home's elegant feel with gleaming hardwood floors, a dramatic tray ceiling with layered crown molding, large windows overlooking the greenery, and ample space for a substantial bedroom suite. The neutral color palette provides a calm and inviting retreat while allowing the architectural details to stand out. The primary bathroom has been beautifully updated and offers a spa-like atmosphere. It features a large glass-enclosed tile shower, a deep soaking tub surrounded by coordinating tile, dual vessel sinks, marble-look countertops, extensive mirrors, and stylish contemporary fixtures. The combination of warm tile tones and soft gray walls creates a polished yet comfortable environment. Throughout the home, the finishes reflect a thoughtful blend of traditional craftsmanship and updated style. Details such as decorative millwork, plantation-style shutters, hardwood flooring, upgraded lighting, custom ceiling treatments, and carefully selected fixtures add character without making the home feel overly formal. Outdoor living is another major highlight. The home appears designed to take full advantage of its wooded surroundings, with multiple outdoor entertaining areas including a screened porch, deck, and covered patio. These spaces provide natural extensions of the interior living areas and offer peaceful places to enjoy the property throughout the seasons. Overall, this is a distinctive and exceptionally well-cared-for home that offers privacy, curb appeal, quality finishes, comfortable living spaces, and abundant indoor-outdoor living opportunities. Its combination of mature landscaping, wooded surroundings, substantial architectural detail, updated bathrooms, hardwood floors, multiple entertaining areas, and an inviting neutral interior gives it a refined yet genuinely livable character.
