Property Description
Opportunities to own a home of this caliber in one of the area's most established neighborhoods are few and far between. Thoughtfully designed with over 5,000 square feet of living space, this exceptional residence blends timeless elegance with the comfort and functionality today's buyers are looking for. From the moment you step into the grand foyer with soaring 20-foot ceilings, you're welcomed by an abundance of natural light and a layout that feels both spacious and inviting. Whether you're hosting holiday dinners in the formal dining room, gathering with family in one of the two living areas, or enjoying a quiet morning in the breakfast nook, every space was designed with everyday living and entertaining in mind. A dedicated home office provides the perfect place to work without sacrificing the comfort of home. Upstairs, the private primary suite offers a peaceful retreat, complete with a beautifully updated bathroom and an oversized walk-in closet. Four additional bedrooms provide plenty of room for family and guests, with two connected by a Jack-and-Jill bathroom. The upstairs laundry room adds convenience exactly where it's needed most. Step outside to a screened-in porch where a built-in grill creates the perfect setting for weekend cookouts, game days, or relaxing evenings overlooking the beautifully landscaped yard. Mature crepe myrtle trees provide stunning curb appeal and add to the home's timeless character. Behind the scenes, this home has been exceptionally maintained with a whole-home generator that's only two years old, three HVAC systems, two water heaters, and a roof replaced in 2020. The three-car garage and generous storage throughout ensure there's a place for everything. Located in Flood Zone X, where flood insurance is typically not required by lenders, and with no HOA restrictions, this remarkable property offers both peace of mind and freedom. Luxury homes in neighborhoods like this rarely become available. This is your chance to own one that offers the space, quality, and timeless appeal to be enjoyed for years to come. All measurements are m/l.
