About This Home

As of July 2018

This new build by J. Baron Land Co. LLC is 6125 sq. ft. of superb construction. Loaded with custom millwork and high end finishes, this light filled house has the best floor plan I have ever seen – traditional enough to feel comfortable, but with some very nice surprises. It feels much more like a custom build than a spec house. 9 ft. ceilings on all three floors, energy efficient, fabulous curved patio with fire pit, great yard with room for a pool and on one of the most coveted streets in town. This is a good one. Please note that Taxes will be $29,914.60 as of July 2018.
