About This Home
As of April 2026Welcome to the one that truly stands out in Smith Mills Farms. Perfectly positioned on a quiet cul-de-sac in highly desirable Pike Creek Valley, this stunning 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home delivers space, style, and standout upgrades at every turn. From the moment you arrive, the screened front porch with EZ-Breeze panels sets the tone—easily converting into a retreat where you can relax in comfort no matter the weather. Step inside and you’re greeted by a flowing main level designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. A spacious living room, formal dining room with pocket door access to the kitchen, and a versatile den/flex space provide all the flexibility today’s lifestyle demands. The refreshed kitchen shines with granite countertops, painted cabinetry, and a decorative backsplash, all while opening seamlessly to the impressive family room. Here, you’ll find a vaulted ceiling and a stunning floor-to-ceiling wood-burning fireplace that creates a warm and inviting centerpiece. Upstairs, the primary suite is a true sanctuary, featuring rich hand-scraped hardwood floors and a luxurious spa-like bath. Unwind in the custom-tiled shower featuring a polished earth stone floor that delivers a natural, soothing feel underfoot, while the dual vanity with European-style sinks, and leathered granite countertop adds a sleek, upscale touch. Every detail has been curated to create a calming, retreat-like atmosphere—your own private spa at home. Three additional bedrooms, a common hall full bathroom and a versatile loft space complete the upper level. The walk-out basement adds even more versatility, with a partially finished area filled with natural light—perfect for a media room, gym, or hobby space—plus an unfinished section ready for storage or a workshop. Out back, enjoy your own private escape with a screened-in porch overlooking the backyard—perfect for relaxing, entertaining, or taking in the peaceful surroundings without the hassle of the elements. Located just moments from White Clay Creek, Middle Run Valley, Paper Mill Park, and Carousel Park, this home offers easy access to some of the area’s best outdoor destinations. Major updates bring peace of mind, including a new concrete driveway and sidewalks (2024), HVAC system (2019), 50 year shingled roof (2016), new water heater (2020), and fresh paint throughout most of the home. Turn the key and step into something special.
