About this home
Welcome to 860 Blazing Star Road - a rare five-bedroom Watts model delivering three finished above-grade levels and sweeping vistas of Lake Leopold and protected native prairie, all set within Prairie Crossing, one of the country's most acclaimed conservation communities. Meticulously cared for and fully move-in ready, the home blends the timeless warmth of Prairie Crossing architecture with thoughtful modern updates. Crisp new paint and refreshed light fixtures elevate every room, while brand-new stainless steel appliances bring a sleek, contemporary finish to the kitchen. Tucked just off the kitchen, a stunning butler's pantry complete with a wet bar doubles as an entertainer's centerpiece and your go-to morning coffee bar. Step outside onto the deluxe second-story porch, where the prairie and lake views stretch even wider - breathtaking in all four seasons. Two bedrooms enjoy direct access to this private second-floor balcony, treating you to a bird's-eye perspective of the neighborhood and the shimmering waters of Lake Leopold. Mornings here are nothing short of extraordinary. Just inside from the garage, a cleverly reimagined mudroom creates the ultimate drop zone, while custom built-ins throughout the home deliver both everyday function and timeless style. Owned solar panels provide lasting energy efficiency and year-round peace of mind. Downstairs, the unfinished basement is already roughed in for a future bathroom, offering a blank canvas to expand and personalize. The finished third floor is the crown jewel! Think of it as your above grade finished recreation room! Rich hardwood flooring, a full bathroom, and sunlight pouring in from every angle frame some of the most stunning lake views Prairie Crossing has to offer - ideal as a recreation room, private guest quarters, or an inspiring home office. Out back, the yard opens directly onto protected green space and a park, a rare and tranquil setting that extends your living space straight into nature. Miles of walking and biking trails, organic farmland, and preserved open space complete a lifestyle that stands in a league of its own. This isn't just a home - it's Prairie Crossing living at its absolute finest....
