The words "model home" are truly an under-statement. While this stately home was not originally the model home for the builder, it surely wins that title now. It all begins with a stone and white fiber cement classic elevation with stone landscaped plant beds and an extended sidewalk entry. Upgraded from the beginning and with meticulously added flourishes through-out, you'll fall in love from the moment you enter the front door. The warm colored, engineered hickory hardwood floors greet you in the 2-story foyer along with a dramatic, curved staircase; those hardwoods travel across the majority of the first floor including the conveniently placed back stairs. The elegantly wallpapered dining room with a curved wall, wainscoting, and a beautiful chandelier draw your eyes to one side of the generous welcoming foyer while the equally stunning living room, also adorned with wainscoting and its own exquisite chandelier, is on the opposite side for easy entertaining. Follow the foyer hall which is lit with a striking gold-toned chandelier to an inviting family room with custom, lighted built-ins flanking the gas fireplace with a beautiful mantel and upgraded, sand-colored marble surround. The adjacent, ample eating area along with the chef's kiss kitchen all look out onto a glorious Trex floored, open porch with a stacked stone, gas fireplace and expansive Techo Bloc patio which would make even Joanna Gaines envious. You can't miss the huge, kitchen pantry and butler's pantry between the eating area and the dining room. The kitchen dons fabulous natural light from windows on one whole side, exquisite quartz counters and backsplash, and an oversized island for all your best friends to gather. Significantly upgraded appliances include a gas cooktop with an overhead vent that vents outside and a wall oven and microwave off to the side which make for an abundance of countertop work space. A drop zone, half bath, and a large laundry room with sink are all convenient near the garage door and the secondary stairs. Rounding out the 1st floor is a lovely bedroom suite with a full bath. Now let's saunter up that curved staircase to the 2nd floor. The primary bedroom is all encompassing with space; light; drama; double doors; tasteful, modern wallpaper; and yes, a romantic air. Large double closets with one as a show-off including a custom closet system are part of the ensuite upon entering the opulent bath. With separate vanities, a large tile shower, a soaking tub, and gorgeous porcelain tile, it will feel like your very own spa. Continue through the upstairs hardwood hall to 3 additional sizeable bedrooms, two with their very own bathrooms and walk-in closets, and one of those with a special wainscoting embellishment. The 3rd bedroom shares a bathroom with a double vanity and a private shower/toilet area with the bonus loft; it also has a roomy closet. Speaking of the huge bonus loft, just look at that feature wall and hardwood floors. Located right at the back stairs and away from the primary suite, it's an easy pop down to the laundry room or to the kitchen. Not to be left out is the side-entry, 3-car garage with an epoxy floor for the discerning car enthusiast. And to keep up with your health routine, the White Oak Creek Greenway & the American Tobacco Trail are not even a jog away. 24 Hr Notice For Showings.
