About This Home

As of September 2024

Drive down the road on Walnut Ridge Rd to find your custom designed home with circular driveway. As the seasons progresses, perennial blooms follow at each interval - always something in bloom ! Surrounded by nature, check out the AMAZING private views & natural light from the floor to ceiling windows with breathtaking views of wooded lot. 17 Walnut offers flex living; there are TWO primary suites, one on main and second up. The open concept living area features a wood burning fireplace on a gorgeous concrete cantilever hearth flanked with original brick mantel. A modern chef's galley kitchen has been thoughtfully planned with a 20' quartz countertop and unique features such “Fireclay” backsplash tiles, six burner Thermador commercial gas range with commercial vent hood, custom pantry and plenty of drawer storage for minimal clutter to spark maximum joy. Gorgeous hardwood floor throughout main and upper floors. The main level primary suite located at the end of the hall and features newer en suite. Two additional bedrooms and a large updated laundry complete this floor. Going up the modern turned staircase with metal railing leads to another primary or guest suite. The second expansive space on this floor could be another bedroom, designer dressing room, a yoga studio, office or private retreat with expansive floor to ceiling windows. The lower level walk-out basement is a fabulous for entertaining, recreating, home office or another den. The lower level offers plenty of options! Room for a bar (capped water lines already in place), room for ping pong or pool table or a home theatre. A walk out to the gravel & Avondale brown stone patio bordered by a garden lets you take the party outside as well. The other half of the lower level offers a 3rd ‘garage’ & is perfect for a workout room, storage, woodworking, gardening, and crafting. Upgrades include full kitchen remodel with commercial appliances, quartz countertops and custom- made eco-cabinets and tile; finished basement a powder room, all new plumbing, heating pipes and baseboard units throughout the house. Two remodeled full baths on main level. Newer whole-house water treatment system with neutralizer, filter and ultraviolet unit. Going from main home to garage, there is a screened-in patio that opens to expansive deck that surrounds the home. This screened in patio leads you to a two-car garage with individual bays and a studio upstairs *with it's own entrance! that could be used as an au pair suite or office. Home offers uninterrupted electric with a whole house generator. Welcome home to 17 Walnut Ridge which offers an incredible location & recent upgrades!
