About This Home

3514 Rugby Road was featured in American Home magazine. In the article, the owners, Dr. and Mrs. Baxter Sapp, describe the home as ''one that's easy to love,'' praising its colonial charm, compact scale, privacy, and livability. The article further notes that builder John C. Williams' meticulous attention to detail and proportion ''has brought distinction to what might have been a run-of-the-mill Cape Cod.'' Thoughtful updates include a beautifully designed chef's kitchen featuring a Wolf gas range and a stunning quartzite island, ideal for both prep and entertaining. The pantry/bar area is stylish and functional, and the updated primary and secondary bathrooms showcase exquisite, premium tile selections.You will not want to miss the sunroom overlooking the backyard, nor the charming storage shed that once provided a magical two-story playhouse for hours of fun. Situated on 1.26 acres, the home is set back gracefully from the road, offering privacy and a true sense of retreat. This is a gem you will be glad you discovered. Former buyers backed out after the due diligence period for personal reasons.
