About This Home

As of April 2015

Not same old, same old. Lovely Julington Creek home near the end of a cul-de-sac featuring a flowing floor plan and many special architectural features--niches, arches, 10 foot ceilings, tray ceilings and high end light fixtures everywhere. A three sided stone fireplace and travertine hearth can be enjoyed from the LR, FR and kitchen as well. The kitchen features nearly new appliances, granite countertops, newly tiled 'current' backsplashes, and a wonderful center island with drawers. The redone master suite sports a re-done bath with walk-in shower, a roman tub, glass block windows and a high rise double vanity AND a deep, deep walk-in closet. Fourth bedroom, off foyer with glass-paned French Doors severs as an office but conforms. Don't miss this truly special home.
