About This Home

As of August 2025

Discover your private sanctuary in the coveted Walder Farm Estates. Fully renovated in 2011 and tucked at the end of a serene, tree-lined cul-de-sac, this 4-bedroom, 4-bath expanded ranch is the perfect blend of luxury and comfort. A sweeping circular driveway welcomes you to a charming home with a covered front porch, setting the stage for relaxed elegance. Inside, the foyer opens between a music room and a formal dining room, and flows into a dramatic great room anchored by a striking fireplace. The open-concept design leads to a chef-worthy kitchen ready for culinary adventures big or small, complete with a walk-in pantry, wet bar, and laundry room. Step through sliding glass doors to an expansive deck, an in-ground pool, and lush gardens bordered by evergreensa€”your own backyard retreat with complete privacy. The first-floor primary suite offers the ease of single-level living, but there's more! A discreet staircase leads to the second floor with two oversized bedrooms, a hall bath, a third ensuite bedroom, a cozy family room, and a dedicated office. The FOUR-car garage connects to a spacious unfinished lower levela€”already framed, plumbed for two bathrooms and a kitchena€”just waiting for your vision. All this, nestled in one of the towna€TMs most desirable neighborhoods. Privacy, potential, and pure charma€”ita€TMs all here.
