About This Home

As of April 2024

STUNNING custom built home in the secluded Castlewood neighborhood near Stokesay Castle. This home was so intentionally designed to provide light and views from almost every space. A modern, amazing open staircase allows views from top to bottom of the home. This is truly open concept living and entertaining! The large, well appointed kitchen has a huge center island with new gas cooktop with downdraft. Double wall ovens, stainless steel appliances, wine cooler, breakfast counter, granite tops and loads of storage will allow for some serious cooking and baking. There is also a large walk-in pantry! Multiple options for dining include the counter seating, breakfast table and dining room-great for family gatherings and holiday entertaining. The stacked stone floor to ceiling wood-burning fireplace is truly a thing of beauty. Deliberate symmetry viewing the rear windows with a slider to the rear deck. Off to the left side is a generous screened in porch and a newer hot tub. The 2nd level consists of an open loft office space, reading nook, laundry room, 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. The Jack & Jill bathroom has just been updated and is beautiful! The entire 3rd level is the ultimate primary suite with a large bedroom with 3 sided gas fireplace, vaulted ceilings, large soaking tub, generous sized bathroom with tile shower and double vanities, private water closet, 4 walk-in closets, bookend balconies and a light-filled entry space. The lower level is another large open concept entertaining space with a media room for movie night, family room with a custom bar, exercise/flex space and a half bath. Double sliders lead to a rear patio and access to the yard. This home has new luxury vinyl plank flooring on the main level, new carpet on the lower, main and 3rd level, new water treatment system, multiple heating and cooling zones. The 3 car attached garage is oversized with additional storage and a workshop area. This beautiful, well maintained home is 100% move-in ready PLUS for peace of mind, it has a home warranty in place until February 9, 2025. It also appraised for the list price.
