About This Home
Live in your own storybook village, where tree-lined streets wind past homes with inviting front porches, Victorian-inspired details, and the kind of architectural character rarely found in newer neighborhoods. Chestnut Oaks was designed to feel different—and from the moment you arrive, it does. That same sense of craftsmanship continues inside this home, where warm heart pine floors, wainscoting, decorative trim, and extensive stacked crown molding create spaces with depth, warmth, and personality. A soaring two-story foyer sets the tone, leading into a dramatic great room where vaulted ceilings and a stacked-stone fireplace create a natural centerpiece for both quiet evenings and lively gatherings. The kitchen sits at the heart of the home, with solid surface countertops, a tile backsplash, gas range, and an easy connection to the surrounding living spaces and outdoor deck. The main-level primary suite feels like a true retreat, offering a generous walk-in closet and spacious bath with dual vanities, separate tub and shower, and private water closet. Upstairs, the home continues to surprise. Two separate loft areas offer the freedom to create spaces that fit the way you live—perhaps a reading nook overlooking the living spaces below, a home office, media room, playroom, or creative studio. One loft also offers the potential to be enclosed, creating an additional bedroom, bonus room, or more private workspace as your needs change. Thoughtful details appear in unexpected places, from the barn door at the laundry area to the layers of millwork that give the home its distinctive character. Step outside to enjoy dinner on the deck, a weekend gathering with friends, or a quiet evening relaxing in the hot tub under the stars. In a world of cookie cutter neighborhoods, Chestnut Oaks stands apart. Here, architecture has personality, homes have character, and coming home feels a little like stepping into a story of your own.
