About this home
Set on one of the finest lots in the sought-after Olde Town Village Subdivision, this distinguished residence was thoughtfully designed and constructed by a local builder for his own family. Every detail reflects an eye for quality, luxury, and livability, blending timeless craftsmanship with modern amenities. Resting on 1.4 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds, this estate welcomes you with a sense of arrival the moment you turn into the driveway, flanked by brick light posts and lush gardens that set the tone for what lies ahead. Inside, the home’s floor plan is both inviting and functional, with cathedral ceilings and living room creating an immediate sense of openness and light. Rich hardwood floors flow seamlessly throughout the main level, anchoring spaces that feel warm yet sophisticated. The living room, centered on a fireplace and framed by large windows, transitions naturally into the open kitchen and breakfast nook. Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms offer comfort and flexibility for family or guests. The crown jewel is the sprawling master suite, designed as a retreat within a retreat. A sun-filled sitting area provides space to unwind, while the spa-inspired bath is a showcase of luxury. Heated tile floors warm your feet on cool mornings, a multi-headed glass shower delivers a rejuvenating experience, and a whirlpool tub invites you to linger at day’s end. A spacious walk-in closet ensures ample storage with room to spare. The walk-out lower level expands the living experience even further, offering a fully finished space with a cozy gas fireplace, a full bath, and even a private sauna. Whether hosting gatherings, creating a media room, or enjoying quiet evenings at home, this level brings versatility and comfort. French doors open directly to the backyard oasis, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living. The rear grounds are a private sanctuary, designed for both relaxation and entertaining. Mature plantings, curated flower beds, and thoughtful landscaping frame a stunning in-ground pool and expansive paver patio. A built-in outdoor BBQ makes summer gatherings effortless, while a fire pit offers the perfect evening retreat under the stars.
