The story behind this home is every bit as charming as the home itself. Originally selected and built as the personal residence of respected local custom builder Dan Robuck, this single-owner home was designed without compromise. Every detail reflects the quality, thoughtful design, and superior construction that only a builder creating a home for his own family would demand. More than 40 years ago, the current owners began searching for the perfect home to start the next chapter of their lives. They wanted custom construction, a central location convenient to work, and access to top-rated schools. They had set their sights on Budleigh, but despite their efforts, the right home never seemed to appear. Then, during a walk through the winding streets of their dream neighborhood, they came across a home under construction that immediately captured their attention. Curious, they walked around back, stepped inside, and instantly knew they had found something extraordinary. The home featured solid brick construction, copper gutters and downspouts, copper plumbing, 9-foot ceilings, extensive millwork, gracious living spaces, four bedrooms, three full baths, dual primary suite options on both the main and upper levels, and a massive basement already equipped with a fireplace and plumbing for a future full bath. Everywhere they looked, the home reflected quality and craftsmanship. There was only one problem—it wasn't for sale. It was Dan Robuck's personal home. Fortunately, they had the opportunity to meet Dan, and after some determined negotiations, he agreed to sell. More than four decades later, the owners are ready to pass this remarkable property on to its next steward, someone who will appreciate and enjoy it for the next 40 years and beyond. As you approach the home along the herringbone brick walkways and step onto the welcoming front stoop, you immediately sense that you are about to experience something special. This beautiful residence offers four bedrooms, three full baths, and just under 3,000 square feet of finished living space, along with approximately 1,100 square feet of unfinished basement space. The lower level is already framed for a large bonus room with a fireplace, an additional bedroom, and a full bath, while also providing a workshop area and a two-car garage. The main level features 9-foot ceilings and hardwood floors throughout. The elegant front living room showcases exquisite millwork, a fireplace, and a wall of custom cabinetry and built-in bookshelves. The spacious dining room is highlighted by a chair rail, classic toile wallpaper, and a beautiful bay window. Ahead of its time in design, the home offers an open-concept kitchen and family room complete with a fireplace and handsome beamed ceilings. A generously sized bedroom with a walk-in closet and adjacent full bath provides flexibility as either a main-level primary suite or private guest accommodations. Completing the main floor is a bright enclosed porch lined with windows that overlook the private, level 0.71-acre lot—a peaceful retreat perfect for year-round enjoyment. Upstairs, two oversized guest bedrooms share a well-appointed hall bath. The spacious primary suite offers a walk-in closet and a large ensuite bath featuring both a soaking tub and separate shower. A conveniently located laundry room serves the upper-level bedrooms. The thoughtful floor plan and exceptional quality of construction create a rare opportunity. Whether you choose to move in and enjoy the home as it is, or renovate and expand into the substantial unfinished basement space, 3102 Eton Road provides the perfect foundation to make it your own.
