About This Home
As of August 2025Welcome to 28 Pleasant View, a special home in the heart of Jason Heights, originally built as a custom Royal Barry Wills and expanded with tasteful updates. Every corner of this property feels intentional, from the sun-drenched entryway to the cozy living and family rooms that invite relaxation and conversation. The main level is made for connection and comfort: curl up by the fireplace in the family room, host in the sunroom just off the updated kitchen, or enjoy easy access to the backyard from the den. A guest suite, full bath, and laundry room round out the floor everything you need, all on one level. Upstairs, you’ll find two bedrooms and a full bath, plus a spacious primary suite with double closets and a separate dressing room (or home office!). The ensuite features a soaking tub and walk-in shower. And if you're dreaming big, the third-floor attic is wide open for expansion or epic storage. This is the kind of home you stay in comfortable, elegant, and made for living well.
