RATE BUY-DOWN! $5,000 seller paid concessions to buy down buyer's interest rate with offer. The first thing you will notice with this custom built home is how bright, open, and welcoming it feels. The soaring ceilings, oversized windows, and open layout create an incredible sense of space, while the stone fireplace gives the main living area warmth and character. The natural light and the way the layout of the space makes the entire home feel connected. What you will appreciate the most is that the home isn't just beautiful, it was thoughtfully designed to be lived in. The main living area naturally is the heart of the home, for day-to-day life, entertaining family and friends, and celebrating holidays. At the same time, everyone still has their own space. Whether you will be working from home, hosting overnight guests, or simply enjoying a quiet evening, the layout has the right balance between bringing people together and giving everyone room to spread out. The bonus sunroom is surrounded by windows, it feels like you're outside while enjoying the comfort of being indoors. It's the perfect place for a morning coffee while watching the seasons change, and the views of the backyard make the outdoors feel like a natural extension of the home. The location is the finishing touch. Tucked into a quiet cul-de-sac with no backyard neighbors, the home backs onto mature trees, open green space, a park, and recreational paths. The neighborhood itself is full of parks, ponds, and trails, and the deck - with a retractable awning - will be your favorite places to relax, read, watch the birds, or enjoy an evening around the fire. It's a setting that offers privacy and convenience. From the generous storage throughout the home to the enormous lower-level storage room, every space feels intentional. The main-floor primary suite, dedicated workspaces (or dining room if you prefer!), guest accommodations, and abundant storage allows this home to adapt easily through different stages of life. It's a home that's just as practical as it is beautiful, and one whose thoughtful design continues to stand out. The home features many updates including a roof, A/C and furnace. This is a home you will want to see!
