About This Home

As of February 2020

Every once in a while an absolutely perfect property comes along and this is it! Your search ends at 2020 Gring Drive. Imagine your dream home at an affordable price in the heart of the sought-after Wilson School District just minutes from shopping, schools, hospitals, and highways and only steps from Drexelwood Park. The spectacular curb appeal gives you a hint of what to expect inside. But first, take a walk around the exterior . . . there's a ton of stonework (drywalls and patios), a secluded deck, two covered entertaining areas, mature landscaping, and a waterfall. The roof was installed in 2015 along with the upgraded bead siding. Step inside and hold on, because you've never seen a Drexelwood house like this before now. The owners added square footage to the rear of the building and the result is a custom, open floor plan with tons of surprising space. Okay, where to start? There are so many custom features: gleaming Santos mahogany floors, recessed lighting, chair rail, wainscotings, crown moldings and this is just in the foyer!! Need a home office? Well, this place has the perfect space, conveniently tucked away near the front entrance, with an entire wall of built-in bookshelves. Now catch your breath as you make your way into the kitchen. Seriously, this is the quality of kitchen you would find in a million dollar house. The top-of-the-line Plain & Fancy cabinetry (54 handles) is beyond compare; the granite impressive, and the three sinks practical. The appliances are super high end with a Miele built-in dishwasher, an additional Fisher dishwasher drawer, a KitchenAid warming drawer, a Viking 36 six burner stove, a Subzero refrigerator, plus an extra mini fridge in the butler s pantry. There is a built-in settee with even more built-in bench storage, huge walk-in pantry, and a separate utility closet. Truly, this is a gourmand's dream kitchen. The first floor family room has a built-in shelving around the fireplace that houses a wood insert stove. There is also a sunroom off the back of the house that has entrances from both the kitchen and family room. Upstairs, you'll find the master bedroom with a massive dressing room/closet (yes, there are even more built-ins here), plus an impressive master bathroom. The shower has four different jets/zones and the floor is heated to keep your tootsies toasty. There are two additional full baths on the second level (one in the hallway and one en suite). Don't forget that the basement is also finished with a full recreation area that includes a stone hearth (gas fireplace) and a full bar. There is a huge unfinished area for utilities and future expansion as there is an outside entrance. The two-car garage in oversized with a huge additional storage area, plus there is a pull-down stairs with access to the attic. The driveway easily fits five cars and there is storage shed. This description could go on and on, but really this is a house you need to see to appreciate.
