As of August 2025Welcome to 1500 Old Peterson Rd - a beautifully updated home on a spacious corner lot in the highly sought-after Timber Creek neighborhood.

Step inside to an impressive, updated foyer featuring an all-new modern staircase that sets the tone for the rest of the home. The owners have thoughtfully brought this property into the 2020s with stylish finishes and major interior improvements, plus the not so glamorous improvements, including a new roof (2023) with CertainTeed Presidential TL luxury architectural shingles and a 30-year warranty, new garage doors, and a new washer and dryer. The kitchen is the heart of the home, complete with a center island, pantry, eat-in area, and chef-style appliances. Sliding doors open to a redone deck and patio overlooking the serene preserve. The kitchen flows into a spacious family room with 12-foot ceilings, a central fireplace, and new hardwood floors. A bright sunroom is a perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee or an additional office space. The formal dining room features custom wainscoting and a built-in wine bar with beverage fridge, while the light-filled living room and dedicated office space offer flexible living. A beautifully updated half bath and a spacious 3-car garage complete the main level.
