About This Home

As of May 2022

This exceptional NV Homes Severn 4 BD + Study/2.5 BA home delivers incredible pond & woods views at nearly every turn while being just a short walk from Bay Forest’s core amenities. Paver shoulders flank the driveway, extending into a walk to the home’s leaded pane glass front door at left. Step into the Great Room where three windows (w/ stenciled paint accents) and a cathedral ceiling dormer flood light across gleaming wood floors that proceed into an elegant Dining Area featuring recessed lighting, compound crown & chair rail moldings and custom paint work below the chair rail. The Dining Area boasts a pass-through into the adjacent Kitchen with upgraded Tray Ceiling, supple cork flooring, recessed lighting, dual Wall Ovens, a Dishwasher, built-in Cooktop & Microwave. Upgraded cabinets are trimmed with Corian counters and a tiled backsplash. There’s also room for a large pantry, an island and a Breakfast Table & Chairs. The Den beyond features a vaulted ceiling with a dual ceiling fan, Natural Gas Fireplace trimmed in slate with a wooden mantel. The Den opens into a 3 Season Room and, from there, a beautiful deck. The huge Primary Bedroom features recessed LED lighting in a custom painted & stenciled Tray Ceiling with a luxurious ceiling fan & light and upgraded Berber carpet. It looks out into the 3 Season Room and onto the pond & woods beyond. The Primary Walk-In Closet's custom cabinetry includes soft-close drawers & more.

Upstairs are a full Bath, three guest Bedrooms and a large Study which looks down upon the Great Room through custom glass panels that can close off the space for greater privacy. The Utility Room upstairs houses the HVAC system & hot water heater while providing loads of space for storage. In addition to 4 ceiling fans, 3 wallscreen TVs and $10,000 in custom window treatments, this Severn features extraordinary views of three ponds along its side and rear elevations. Between the ponds and the beautiful woods just beyond them, wildlife thrives here, offering all number of breathtaking sights in the day-to-day. But that is just the beginning! Don't forget all that Bay Forest delivers! The National Association of Homebuilders named Bay Forest Platinum Award Winning #1 Best in American Living Community in 2019. Its amenities, all but unmatched in Sussex County at this price point, include: a clubhouse with lounge filled with tables, chairs, a fireplace & cable TV, a grille, a game room and Women's & Men's lockers opening onto 3 pools (including a lazy river).
